Medical hemostatic pads are disposable sterile medical materials used in medical procedures to absorb blood and body fluids and achieve rapid hemostasis by applying physical pressure to the wound and promoting blood coagulation. It is one of the most commonly used and fundamental items in surgery, wound care and first aid. The X-ray abdominal pad is an upgraded version, which enhances traceability and reduces the risk of life-threatening issues left in the patient's body during surgery.
General Categories of Blood-sucking Pads
1. Gauze pads, also known as gauze pads: They are made by folding multiple layers of gauze and are a relatively traditional medical consumable for hemostasis.
2. Medical hemostatic sponge: It refers to a pad containing pro-coagulant components, which has a stronger hemostatic effect and is often used on wounds with excessive bleeding or after tooth extraction in the mouth.
3. Non-woven fabric pad: Made of non-woven fabric material, it is softer and less prone to shedding fibers.
4. X-ray abdominal pad: Composed of non-woven fabric, wood pulp paper, imported woolen pulp, barium wire, etc.
Materials
Hemostatic pads are usually made of materials such as absorbent cotton, gauze, non-woven fabric or high-molecular polymers. The interior is usually composed of absorbent paper, high-molecular absorbent resin, highly absorbent materials, etc., which have a strong ability to absorb water and liquid. The outermost layer is made up of a soft and breathable gauze or non-woven fabric that prevents fibers from falling off and entering the wound. The barium wire hemostatic pad will also add a barium wire that can be traced by radiation, which can reflect under ultraviolet radiation, making it convenient to track the residual problems of the hemostatic pad.
The common hemostatic pads on the market are mainly rectangular or square. However, there are also some specially treated hemostatic pads that have wrinkles in the middle to better fit the body contour and increase the liquid absorption capacity in order to conform to the human body curve or ergonomics.
Functions
The barium thread hemostatic pad can be used during and after surgery, as well as in emergency trauma treatment.
1. Hemostasis during surgery: In various surgical operations, it is used to absorb surgical fluid to avoid affecting the surgical vision and causing accidental trauma. In addition, it can also be used to cover wounds and apply pressure to stop bleeding, becoming the most consumed essential item in the operating room.
2. Postoperative wound coverage: After the operation, cover the sutured or bandaged wound to absorb bleeding and exudate and protect the wound.
3. Trauma first aid: It is used to treat various external injuries, such as cuts, abrasions, contusions, etc., and directly apply pressure to the wound to stop bleeding.
4. Daily wound care: It is used to clean and cover the wound when changing dressings.
Precautions for Use
1. Aseptic principle: Medical abdominal pads are mainly used for medical purposes and are mostly applied during surgeries, facing open wounds. Therefore, the hemostatic pads must be sterilized before use.
2. Correct compression: In case of active bleeding, apply direct and continuous compression to the bleeding point to stop the bleeding, and avoid frequently lifting the wound to check its condition.
3. Principle of covering for hemostasis: When the blood has soaked through the first hemostasis pad, a new one should be placed over it to continue applying pressure. Avoid removing the first hemostatic pad to prevent the newly scab wound from rupturing and continuing to bleed.
4. Severe bleeding requires medical attention: If there is severe bleeding such as a rupture of a major artery, simply applying pressure with a hemostatic pad is not enough. Emergency medical assistance should be called immediately or the patient should be sent to the hospital.
How to Use the Most Suitable Product?
The selection of blood-sucking pads directly affects the hemostasis effect, the cleanliness of the surgical area and the safety of the operation. When choosing a suitable hemostatic pad, it is necessary to understand its material, structure, X-ray imaging design and sterilization standards.
1. Understand the basic functions of the hemostatic pad. The material of the hemostatic pad should be soft, free of lint, and have a neat seal to prevent fiber shedding and wound infection.
2. Evaluate the material of the self-study points. It is safer to use 100% medical-grade cotton that meets the standards of the British Pharmacopoeia and the United States Pharmacopoeia.
3. Select the appropriate structure and size. Ayida produces multiple sizes such as 10*10cm, 10*20cm, 15*20cm, and 20*20cm. And according to the absorption requirements, hemostatic pads of different layers can be adopted.
4. Choose a barium wire design with high safety. The barium wire should be firmly woven, not easily degraded due to sterilization, and be continuously embedded rather than printed or surfacing.
Other matters
1. Provide OEM single-package aseptic bags or bulk non-aseptic packaging;
2. Confirm the minimum order quantity and delivery date; The minimum order quantity for ayida is 50,000 to 100,000 pieces, and the delivery period is 15 to 25 days.
3. Medical abdominal pads need to have relevant report certificates such as CE certification, ISO 13485 certification and product test reports; Whether it can support testing by third-party institutions;
Ayida is highly in line with the high-standard supplier requirements of the market and always ensures the quality compliance of x-ray abdominal pads. If you also need this product, please contact us.
