McKesson USP Type VII Gauze Sponge - 4x4 White Square Non-Sterile Cotton Wound Dressing

Premium Medical-Grade Woven Gauze Sponges for Professional Wound Care

McKesson Premium Woven Gauze Sponges represent the gold standard in medical-grade wound care materials, meticulously engineered to meet the demanding requirements of healthcare professionals, clinical facilities, and home care settings. These high-quality, non-sterile gauze sponges are manufactured from 100% pure cotton fibers and meet rigorous USP Type VII quality standards, ensuring consistent performance, superior absorbency, and reliable wound management outcomes across a wide range of clinical applications.

USP Type VII Quality Standards for Clinical Excellence

Each gauze sponge is manufactured to meet United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Type VII specifications, the highest quality classification for medical gauze products. This certification guarantees precise thread count specifications of 19x9 (+/-1 variance) and a minimum weight of 18.1 grams per square meter, ensuring optimal fabric density for superior fluid absorption and wound protection. The premium woven construction creates a soft, lint-resistant surface that minimizes tissue irritation and fiber shedding during wound care procedures, making these sponges ideal for sensitive wound beds and delicate tissue management.

Versatile Applications for Comprehensive Wound Management

These multi-purpose gauze sponges are expertly designed to support a broad spectrum of wound care protocols and clinical procedures. They excel in wound dressing applications, providing a breathable, absorbent primary or secondary layer that promotes optimal healing environments. The sponges are equally effective for wound packing procedures, conforming easily to irregular wound cavities while maintaining structural integrity. Healthcare professionals rely on these gauze sponges for general wound care tasks including cleansing, debridement support, exudate management, and as a protective barrier layer in complex dressing systems.

Premium Cotton Construction for Patient Comfort

Manufactured exclusively from 100% natural cotton fibers, these gauze sponges deliver exceptional softness and patient comfort during application and wear time. The pure cotton composition ensures excellent breathability, allowing air circulation to the wound site while effectively wicking away excess moisture and exudate. The natural fiber construction is gentle on sensitive skin and healing tissue, reducing the risk of mechanical trauma during dressing changes. Importantly, these sponges are not made with natural rubber latex, making them safe for patients and healthcare workers with latex sensitivities or allergies.

Convenient Sizing and Packaging Options

Each gauze sponge measures 4 inches by 4 inches (10.2 cm x 10.2 cm), a universally preferred size that offers optimal coverage for most wound care applications while remaining easy to handle and apply. The standardized square format allows for precise folding, layering, and customization to fit various wound shapes and sizes. Available in both premium and standard quality grades to meet different clinical needs and budget requirements. The sponges come in convenient count sizes with user-friendly peel pouches and trays that allow for easy, hygienic opening and dispensing in busy clinical environments, reducing contamination risk and streamlining workflow efficiency.
