Abdominal pads or laparotomy pad is a dressing used to absorb discharges from abdominal wounds or packing abdominal viscera to increase exposure during surgery. Abdominal Pads are also known as ABD Dressings, are often preferred for large wounds or for highly exuding wounds that require high absorbency. Abdominal (ABD) dressings originated from the military, where they are used to treat battle wounds. ABD is an acronym for “Army Battle Dressing.” ABD wound dressings are made with a thick absorbent layer of gauze that disperses fluids to keep them from accumulating upon the wound site. The edges of ABD dressings are sealed, and the dressing back is specially designed to prevent strike-through.
Choose from a wide selection of abdominal pads available in sterile or non-sterile versions. Try the Covidien Dermecea Non-Sterile Abd Pads, Curity Tendersorb Abdominal Pads form Medtronic Covidien that comes with Wet Proof Barrier to retard fluid strike-through or the Super Absorbent Abdominal Pads from Medline that disperses fluids laterally to prevent pooling.
Change the Alginate dressings one to three days of use, or If fluid starts to seep out from the dressings (Through Edges). For better recommendations please consult your health supervisor.
