Please note: All prices are for cases.

Dukal Everyday Care Gauze Sponges (8506) are high-density, small-format dressings designed for precise clinical tasks and high-volume use. Despite their compact 2" x 2" size, the 12-ply construction provides a substantial absorbent capacity, making them highly effective for managing localized bleeding or applying concentrated topical treatments. These sponges are manufactured from 100% woven cotton, ensuring a soft, non-irritating surface for sensitive or delicate skin areas.

As a non-sterile product, these sponges are ideal for routine tasks such as dental procedures, injection site prepping, and minor wound cleaning in outpatient or long-term care settings. The small dimensions allow for maximum control and minimal material waste when treating small lacerations or abrasions. The low-linting woven fabric maintains structural integrity during use, providing a clean and reliable medium for mechanical skin debridement or prep.

Key Features

• 100% Woven Cotton: Offers natural softness and excellent absorbent properties for small-site fluid management.

• High-Density 12-Ply weave: Provides superior thickness and absorbency in a compact footprint compared to standard 8-ply sponges.

• Precision 2" x 2" Size: Perfect for targeted applications where larger gauze would be cumbersome or wasteful.

• Non-Sterile Application: A cost-effective solution for clinical procedures that do not require an aseptic or sterile field.

• Soft Woven Texture: Gentle on the skin while providing enough friction for effective cleaning and prepping.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Injection and IV Site Prep: Ideal for applying alcohol or antiseptics to a small, localized area before needle insertion.

• Minor Bleeding Control: Excellent for applying pressure to small punctures or dental extraction sites.

• Localized Wound Cleaning: Used to remove debris from small cuts or to apply ointments to targeted skin irritations.

Contraindications

Do not use these non-sterile sponges in surgical procedures or on deep, open wounds requiring a guaranteed sterile environment, as this increases the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).

Do not utilize the sponges as a permanent internal packing material, as they are intended for temporary clinical use only.

Warnings and Precautions

Ensure the wound site is evaluated by a clinical professional to determine if a sterile or non-sterile dressing is appropriate for the current stage of healing.

Monitor the dressing frequently for strike-through or saturation. If the gauze becomes saturated, it must be replaced immediately to prevent skin maceration and maintain a healthy wound environment.

Always dispose of used gauze sponges in accordance with facility biohazard waste protocols. Materials contaminated with blood or bodily fluids must be treated as potentially infectious.

This product is designed for single-patient, single-use only. Reuse of a gauze sponge is a high-risk cross-contamination hazard and is strictly prohibited in any clinical setting.
