Woven gauze rolls or sheets are flexible, absorbent materials made from woven fibers like cotton or cellulose, designed to absorb fluids and protect wounds. Clinically, they serve as primary wound dressings, help retain other dressings in place, or provide padding and compression for minor injuries or medical conditions.
These devices are typically single-use and non-dedicated, meaning they’re versatile for general wound care rather than specialized treatments. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they’re generally classified based on their intended use and risk level, with supply often categorized as medical or surgical consumables.
