ABdeteX X-Ray Detectable Abdominal Sponge

Description

Multigate X-Ray Detectable (XRD) Abdominal Sponges are designed to support reliable intraoperative accounting and post-procedure verification. Each sponge incorporates detection technology for visibility on standard radiographic imaging, with a composite option that also enables ultraviolet (UV) identification. The range offers materials and configurations to align with procedural needs while maintaining consistent handling and performance in the operative field.

Cotton variant (XRD Abdominal Sponge – Cotton)

• Material: cotton
• Detection: X-ray detectable
• Intended use: general surgical absorption and packing where radiographic detectability is required

Composite – Fluro-Tec variant (XRD Abdominal Sponge – Composite – Fluro-Tec)

• Materials: cotton/viscose/polyester blend
• Detection: X-ray and UV detectable
• Detection thread: fluorescent, non-absorbent thread integrated for enhanced traceability
• Performance: low linting; highly absorbent
• Colour: white
• Availability: sterile and non-sterile options
• Use: single-use

Selection and configuration

• Sizes (dimensions): available in multiple sizes across the range
• Configuration: offered in various configurations to suit procedural preferences
• Sterility: options vary by variant (sterile and non-sterile availability noted for Fluro-Tec)
• Use type: selectable according to facility or procedural workflow

Typical applications

• Abdominal and general surgical procedures that require radiographic count reconciliation
• Fluid absorption, packing, and protection of soft tissues during operative phases
• Situations where supplementary UV identification is beneficial (Fluro-Tec composite variant)

Note: Features and availability can vary by variant. Refer to the selected item’s specifications for exact material, detection properties, sterility, size, and configuration details.
