Gasbindor

Gasbindor is the Swedish term for gauze bandages, a common type of wound dressing used in medical settings and first aid. They come in sterile and non-sterile forms and are typically made from woven cotton gauze or nonwoven material. Gauze bandages are designed to be porous and absorbent, allowing moisture vapor to escape while protecting the wound from contaminants.

Gauze bandages are available as pads, rolls, or strips in a range of sizes, and may be dry or impregnated with substances such as petrolatum, zinc oxide, or antiseptics. Sterile gasbindor are individually packaged to prevent contamination until use.

Uses include covering wounds, absorbing exudate, and acting as a secondary layer over a primary dressing to keep the wound clean. They can be secured with medical tape, a bandage, or wrap.

Storage and handling: Keep gauze dry and clean. Sterile gasbindor should remain in their sealed packaging until opened. After use, dispose of used gauze according to local guidelines. Do not reuse sterile gauze that has been contaminated.

Gauze bandages are one element of wound care and are often combined with other dressings, antiseptics, or wound-healing products as part of standard medical practice.
