Excilon Drain and IV Sponge Pre-Slit Design

The key feature of the EXCILON Drain and IV Sponges 4" x 4" is their pre-cut Y-slit, which allows them to fit securely around tracheostomy tubes, IV lines, and catheter entry points. This design minimizes movement and friction around delicate insertion areas, providing gentle, secure protection.

4” x 4” Drain and IV Sponge High Absorbency Capacity 

Each EXCILON sponge is made from a soft, absorbent blend of materials that quickly wicks away fluid and moisture. This is essential for reducing the risk of skin maceration and maintaining a clean wound environment around drainage or IV sites.

By drawing moisture away from the skin and limiting exposure to external contaminants, the EXCILON Drain and IV Sponges 4" x 4" support infection control. The sterile packaging and low-lint material also reduce the chance of introducing bacteria into sensitive areas.

Excilon IV Sponge Soft, Non-Irritating Fabric

These sponges are gentle on skin, making them ideal for users with sensitive or fragile skin, including children, seniors, or those recovering from surgery. The soft texture also reduces abrasion or discomfort from frequent dressing changes.

Maintains Dressing Stability

The unique shape of the 4” x 4” drainage sponge allows it to stay in place better than flat gauze pads when applied around tubes. This stability helps prevent the dressing from shifting or falling off, especially in high-movement areas.

These sponges are suitable for a wide variety of applications, including central lines, tracheostomies, gastrostomy tubes, and more. Their versatility makes them an essential part of any wound care kit where line management is involved.
