1. ENT PVA Range Introduction

2. PVA Vs Cotton Gauze : PVA Poly Vinyl Acetal (PVA): Cotton Gauze:
Modern compressed sponge product capable of expanding to double its size when hydrated for quick and easy insertion
Fiber-free minimising risk of contamination to surgical site
Interconnected cell-structure with capillary action allowing for easy rehydration and delivery of medication
Soft and atraumatic when hydrated increasing patient comfort and reducing pain and tissue trauma during removal
Bio-compatible and inert, reducing risk of reaction or infection to surgical site
High tensile strength enables easier removal and reduces risk of pulling or leaving part of the packaging behind
Dated procedure requires several meters of packing resulting in traumatic and time consuming insertion
Contains fibre particles which can contaminate surgical site
Abrasive open woven structure with increased risk of tissue adhesion and trauma such as re-bleeding during removal
Low tensile strength and adhesion risk increases chance of tearing and pulling during removal which can lead to packaging being left behind
