FAQ's of Lap Sponge:

Q: How are Lap Sponges used during surgical procedures?

A: Lap Sponges are primarily used in operation theatres to absorb blood and fluids, maintain a clear field, and provide gentle retraction or hemostasis. Their high absorbency and soft texture make them suitable for prolonged handling during surgery.

Q: What makes your Lap Sponges X-ray detectable?

A: Each sponge is stitched with a blue radio-opaque thread, making them easily visible on X-rays. This feature ensures sponges are not inadvertently retained in patients, thereby enhancing surgical safety.

Q: When should I choose sterile versus non-sterile lap sponges?

A: Sterile lap sponges are recommended for direct use during surgical procedures to minimize infection risk. Non-sterile variants are suitable for applications where sterility is not critical, such as general wound care or preparation.

Q: What types of packaging are available for Lap Sponges?

A: Lap Sponges can be supplied in individually wrapped sterile packs or bulk packaging for larger procedures, accommodating the preferences and requirements of different hospitals and surgical teams.

Q: Where do your Lap Sponges comply in terms of standards?

A: Our Lap Sponges are produced in accordance with USP and BP standards, ensuring quality, safety, and reliability for medical use in both domestic and international healthcare facilities.

Q: How does the folded edge design benefit surgical use?

A: Folded edges are specifically engineered to prevent loose threads and minimize fraying, reducing the risk of fibers being left behind in surgical wounds. This aids in maintaining a clean and safe operative environment.

Q: What is the shelf life and storage recommendation for Lap Sponges?

A: Lap Sponges should be stored in their original packaging, away from moisture and direct sunlight. When stored correctly and unopened, they maintain their integrity and sterility for up to 5 years.
