Surgi-PVA™ Polyvinyl Alcohol Medical Sponges And Dressings

The SURGI-PVATM sponges provides a total fluid control for nasal and sinus surgery, epistaxis treatment, ear drainage and in the ophthalmic procedure drainage control. Lint and fiber- free PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol) material has open-cell structure (interconnected pores), giving it both strength and softness, is superior to other fibrous packing materials in the application of post-operative hemorrhage and epistaxis treatment.

Advantages Of Surgi-PVATM Sponges Dressing

  • Soft, supportive, anti-adhesive and low irritation.
  • Provide optimal pressure during epistaxis treatment.
  • With hydrophilic feature, it can absorb blood quickly.
  • Easy removal
  • With air-foaming technology, PVA foam prevents bacterial growth, lowers infection, and reduces odor during nose bleed treatment.
  • With breathable airway, effectively reduce patient discomfort
  • One-step placement
  • PVA sponges can soak fluid more than 10%-12% of its dry weight.

Application Areas

Standard nasal packs are designed for use in a variety of nasal surgeries: septoplasty, turbinectomy, rhinoplasty, and so forth. They fill and support nasal cavities during surgery, allowing smooth septum ventilation to ensure patient comfort.

Designed to compactly fill the nasal cavity, anatomic type nasal packs are used during and after nasal surgery. Their optional airway design enhances patient comfort.

Epistaxis type nasal packs are used to treat anterior and posterior nose bleeding safely and effectively. Their soft round edges create less friction and reduce irritation during nasal packs insertion. Epistaxis type nasal packs expand, gently compress, and effectively stop bleeding.

Sinus packs are made with soft, porous, resilient PVA foam. They are designed to support the sinus cavity and the osteomeatal complex to ensure airflow through nose. They also expand to stop bleeding through gentle compression, and facilitate faster recovery. They have rounded edges to allow easy insertion during surgery, and provide comfort even during removal.

Surgi-PVATM Ear Packing

Ear Pack is designed for use in otic ear surgery with multibenefits for patients. Ear packs help absorb fluids during surgery, and the soft and porous PVA foam material can help to expand medication evenly to support the ear canal after surgery.

Soft and resilient ear wicks are designed to aid the treatment of otitis externa. They deliver medication, such as an antibiotics solution, to the ear canal and the ear canal membrane. There are two types of ear wicks available i.e. Standard and Fenestrated.

Surgi-PVATM Ophthalmic Sponges

Eye Spear

SURGI-PVATM eye spears are constructed of soft, absorbent and highly retentive polyvinyl alcohol foam. The porosity is controlled for a variety of applications including LASIK and refractive surgeries. SURGI-PVATM eye spears, gentle on the eyeball and cornea, are designed to quickly clean the surface of the eye and absorb diffuse fluids during ophthalmic procedures. The PVA eye spear is indicated for use in ophthalmic or microscopic surgical procedures for absorbing excess fluids from the operative field

Ordering Information: Surgi-PVATM Eye Spear

The overall length of eye spear is 72 mm including the handle.

Ordering Information: Surgi-PVATM Eye Drain And Wick

  • SURGI-PVATM Eye Drain consists of a fluid collection bag and an eye wick.
  • The SURGI-PVATM Eye Drains and Eye Wicks are utilized to collect and retain excess fluids and prevent them from entering the surgical site.
  • Adhesive backed fluid collection bag ensures proper placement
  • Wick can be easily trimmed to fit all patient sizes.

Ordering Information: Surgi-PVATM Lasik Eye Drain, Eye Ring And Corneal Light Shield

  • SURGI-PVATM LASIK Eye Drain allows the simultaneous absorption of excess fluids from the surgery site and protection of flap and hinge.
  • SURGI-PVATM LASIK Ring minimizes the risk of contamination of the stromal bed by fluids from fornices.
  • SURGI-PVATM Corneal Light Shield is utilized to keep the surface of the cornea moist and cool during ophthalmic procedures by retaining moisture on the cornea. Also, protect retina from potentially harmful lights.
  • Wick can be easily trimmed to fit all patient sizes.

How Does Surgi-PVATM Work

PVA sponges possess a variety of desirable properties for the medical industry. Due to the soft porous structure, PVA sponges provide fast wicking and fluid control especially suited for medical and surgical applications. With an exceptionally high volume and speed of absorption, a PVA sponge is capable of soaking up and retaining over 10 times its dry weight for a volume increase of 20% in a matter of seconds.

PVA sponges made through air expansion result in a strong porous structure with a controllable range of pore size. Air expansion also produces pure, ultraclean sponges without any residue. PVA foam made through particle replacement require these particles to be processed out. Unlike other medical sponges, SURGI-PVATM is not susceptible to bacterial growth. Biocompatible PVA sponges are inorganic, fiber and lint-free. SURGI-PVATM Sponge proves to be effective and ideal solution to assist in management of fluids i.e. fluid control and drainage control and as a tampnode and for the haemostasis.
