Laparotomy Sponge
A laparotomy sponge, also known as a lap sponge or abdominal sponge, is a type of surgical sponge specifically designed for use in abdominal surgeries, particularly laparotomies. These sponges are sterile and come in various sizes to accommodate the different needs of abdominal procedures.
1. Sterility:
- Laparotomy sponges are sterile to prevent the introduction of microorganisms into the surgical site, reducing the risk of postoperative infections.
2. Absorbency:
- These sponges are highly absorbent and are used to manage and absorb blood, fluids, and other substances in the abdominal cavity during surgery.
3. Visibility on X-rays:
- Many laparotomy sponges are designed to be radiopaque, meaning they are visible on X-ray images. This feature helps in identifying and locating sponges if any are accidentally left inside the patient's body after surgery. Radiopacity is often achieved by incorporating a material, such as a barium sulfate strip, that is easily detectable on X-rays.
What are laparotomy pads used for?
These types of medical sponges are mainly used for surgical procedures, containment of bleeding, clinical cleanliness in general, protection of wounds. Thanks to their high absorption capacity, it is possible to keep the surgical area clean.
How do you use a laparotomy sponge?
Laparotomy sponges assist in accelerating the healing time of wounds. To apply the sponge, it is important to first check that the shape and size of the sponge is applicable to the size of the wound that is being treated. The sponge can be placed directly onto the wound, as it is sterilized and not adhesive.
