It is often used clinically in hospitals, and we often use medical gauze blocks in daily life, so it has become a must-have in home medicine cabinets. Although many people will use gauze blocks, there are some small details that are rarely noticed. The following editors will share them with everyone.
Before use, the wounded area and surrounding skin should be disinfected, washed and dried, and then apply the ointment, apply the disinfected medical gauze sheet, and then fix the gauze block with medical adhesive tape.
The production process of medical gauze sheets is very strict. From material selection to processing to packaging, there are strict procedures. However, there are many manufacturers producing gauze blocks on the market, and the product quality is also uneven. When we choose to use it, we must strictly follow the product instructions and precautions.
Medical supplies are the same as food. When using, check whether the packaging is intact, the production date and the expiration date are clearly confirmed. Expired items must not be used.
In addition, the medical gauze sheet cannot be reused because it is not dirty. It belongs to disposable medical supplies. In order to prevent the spread of bacteria and the safety of the user, please avoid repeated use.
In addition, in order to protect the environment in which we live, medical waste must be specially treated and cannot be littered everywhere. Hospitals and environmental protection departments have relevant clear regulations, which can be implemented in compliance.
For the usual storage of medical gauze blocks, we must choose a dry and ventilated environment, no irritating pollution gas, and also keep away from flammable materials and fire-prone areas.
