Description
A fixation bandage must meet many requirements. It must 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-adhesive elastic fixation bandage that is easy to apply and has good supportive 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, making it easy and quick to apply larger and more complicated dressings.
The polyamide fibers do not lose their elasticity even with prolonged use, allowing Gazofix to be used for long-term fixation without folding. Due to its self-adhesive nature, the windings only need to be applied with 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
