Sterile Abdominal Pad, 5" x 9"
The Sterile Abdominal Pad (5" x 9") is designed to handle moderate to heavy drainage while keeping the wound area clean and protected. Its layered construction pulls fluid away from the skin and locks it in, helping reduce irritation and maintain a healthier healing environment. The soft, low-lint surface minimizes the risk of fibers sticking to the wound, which makes this pad a reliable choice in U.S. hospitals, outpatient surgical centers, and home-care situations.
This size is commonly used after abdominal surgery, C-sections, trauma care, and larger wound sites that need dependable absorption. The pad lays comfortably under tapes, wraps, or abdominal binders and stays smooth without bunching. Its sterile packaging makes it easy to use during dressing changes where clean handling is essential.
