Description
A fixation bandage must meet many requirements. It needs to provide reliable fixation that does not shift, but it should not restrict the patient’s freedom of movement. Gazofix offers more. It is a skin-colored, self-adhering elastic fixation bandage, easy to apply and with good supporting properties.
Features
The material of Gazofix consists of cotton and polyamide. Due to impregnated micro-droplets of natural latex, the bandage adheres to itself but not to the skin or hair. Gazofix is also elastic, allowing for the easy and quick application of larger and more complex dressings.
The polyamide fibers do not lose their elasticity even with prolonged use, allowing Gazofix to be used for long periods without folding. Because of its self-adhesive nature, the turns need to be applied with only one third overlap, which can save a lot of material. Gazofix can be sterilized in an autoclave or with gas. Gazofix is individually packaged in cellophane.
Applications
• Fixation of dressings and splints
