Telfa sterile non-adhering dressing pads, 2 X 3 in

Telfa Sterile Non-Adherent Gauze Pads (2 x 3 in) 100/box

Telfa sterile pads are the ultimate clinical standard for wound care requiring gentle, pain-free protection. Featuring a unique perforated film, these pads allow for efficient fluid absorption while preventing the dressing from sticking to the wound bed. They are the ideal choice for fragile skin and situations requiring frequent dressing changes.

Features and benefits:

• Non-adhesive: Thanks to their special surface, these compresses won't stick to the wound, enabling pain-free, trauma-free removal.
• Sterile: Each pad is sterilized to ensure maximum hygiene and prevent infection.
• Convenient size: At 2 X 3 inches, they're ideal for covering small to medium-sized wounds.
• Box of 100: Economical and practical, this box contains 100 compresses, perfect for use at home or in medical settings.

Don't let wounds slow down your daily routine. 

Why Choose Telfa Non-Adherent Pads?

Removing a standard gauze dressing can often tear away newly formed tissue, causing significant pain and delaying the healing process. Telfa technology eliminates this problem: the perforated polyester film allows exudate (wound drainage) to pass through to the absorbent cotton core while keeping the contact surface perfectly smooth.

They are highly recommended for light burns, surgical incisions, and abrasions. Furthermore, unlike standard gauze, Telfa pads do not fray or leave lint and fiber residue in the wound, ensuring a clean healing environment.

How to Apply Your Telfa Pad

1. Wash Your Hands: Ensure your hands are clean before touching the wound or the pad.

2. Prepare the Wound: Gently clean the injury with a saline solution or antiseptic, then pat the surrounding skin dry.

3. Open the Packaging: Remove the Telfa pad from its pouch without touching the side that will be applied to the wound.

4. Apply: Place the smooth side (the perforated film) directly onto the wound.

5. Secure: Use medical tape (such as Transpore) or a tubular bandage (such as Surgilast) to hold the pad in place.

6. Monitor: Change the pad daily or as soon as it becomes saturated with fluid.

Maintenance and Shelf Life

To preserve the sterility and effectiveness of the product, store the box in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight. Always check the expiration date on the individual packaging before use.

Usage Tips for First Responders

Telfa pads are a "must-have" for any first aid kit because they are suitable for nearly all types of injuries. They are particularly useful for children who fear the pain of bandage removal. For larger wounds, you can place two pads side-by-side without risking irritation.

FAQ Regarding Telfa Pads

Are these pads self-adhesive?

No, Telfa pads do not have an adhesive border. They must be secured with medical tape or an elastic net.

Are they suitable for burns?
