Barium contrast thread

Barium thread is colored and resistant to temperature and heat without any lint or breakage.

This thread is used as a raw material in medical gauzes. The presence of these contrast lines in the gauzes means that if the surgical staff suspects that gauze remains in the internal parts of the body, a simple imaging scan can detect the possibility of this gauze and proceed to remove it.

What is the difference between threaded gauze and plain gauze?
The difference between these two gases is in the barium thread. This thread, which is present in threaded gauze and the part inside the gas is connected and cannot be easily separated from it. This thread, which is resistant to temperature and heat, covers the entire length of the gas without any lint or breakage and is widely used in surgical rooms. This thread does not prevent the softness of the gas, but is very effective.

It is very effective. This gauze is packaged in a sterile cover and is packaged in a completely hygienic manner. The use of gauze is to absorb blood and water, to impregnate the wound surface with disinfectants, to wash the wound, and also to use it in surgery and the operating room.
