Is there an alternative for gauze pads?

Low-adherence dressings (e.g. Mepitel®, Jelonet®) are used as interface layers and secondary absorbent dressings. They vary from impregnated cotton or viscose fibres to fenestrated silicone dressings, and help to make dressing changes less painful.Vapour-permeable films and membranes (e.g. Opsite®, Tegaderm®) allow the passage of water vapour and oxygen, but not water or microorganisms. They are commonly used to cover acute surgical wounds, but are not suitable for heavily exuding wounds.Odour-absorbent dressings (e.g. Carboflex®, Lyofoam C®) contain activated charcoal to neutralise odours. They are used mainly in the chronic setting for malodorous infected or fungating wounds.Hope this helps!
