Leukoplast, sterile abdominal gauze, RöKo chip

Adhesive Bandage, Sterile Abdominal Gauze, X-ray Contrast Chip

Sterile abdominal drape made of oxygen-bleached cotton with a sewn-in X-ray contrast chip and loop.

Description

Abdominal drapes are used in the operating room to cover organs, contain tissue, and absorb fluids. The Leukoplast abdominal drape is made of oxygen-bleached cotton in accordance with DIN EN 14079, is pre-washed, and woven with 20 threads.

Each drape features a loop and a sewn-in X-ray contrast chip—both of which ensure the safety of the surgical team and the patient, as a drape left in situ can be clearly identified on an X-ray image. Available in four- and six-ply versions, as well as in white and green; the green version stands out more clearly in the surgical field.
