Dressing Pad & Underpad
PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES
1. Wound Exudate Management
-
Primary Use: Dressing pads are designed to absorb and manage wound exudate, providing a dry, clean environment that promotes healing while protecting the wound from external contamination and trauma.
-
How it helps: For the wound care nurse and clinician, dressing pads provide an effective barrier that manages drainage while maintaining a moist wound environment—promoting healing and preventing maceration of surrounding skin. For the patient, this means wounds heal faster with less discomfort and fewer dressing changes.
2. Pressure Injury Prevention
-
Primary Use: Underpads are placed beneath patients to absorb moisture from incontinence, wound drainage, or perspiration, protecting the skin from prolonged exposure to moisture that can lead to pressure injuries and skin breakdown.
-
How it helps: For the nursing staff and care team, underpads provide an essential layer of protection that keeps patients dry and comfortable—reducing the risk of moisture-associated skin damage. For the patient, especially those with limited mobility, this means healthier skin and reduced risk of pressure injuries.
3. Incontinence Management
-
Primary Use: Underpads serve as a protective barrier for bed linens and mattresses, absorbing urine and fecal matter to maintain patient dignity and hygiene while protecting bedding from soiling.
-
How it helps: For the caregiver and nursing assistant, underpads simplify incontinence management—allowing for quick, easy changes that maintain patient dignity and reduce linen changes. For the patient, this means staying dry, clean, and comfortable throughout the day and night.
4. Post-Operative and Trauma Wound Dressing
-
Primary Use: Dressing pads are used as primary or secondary dressings for surgical incisions, traumatic wounds, and burns, providing absorption, protection, and a clean environment for healing.
-
How it helps: For the post-operative care team, dressing pads provide reliable wound coverage that absorbs drainage while protecting the surgical site from contamination. For the patient recovering from surgery, this means wounds heal cleanly with reduced risk of infection.
5. Procedure and Examination Surface Protection
-
Primary Use: Underpads are used to protect examination tables, procedure chairs, and treatment surfaces from contamination during examinations, minor procedures, and wound care.
-
How it helps: For the clinical team, underpads provide a clean, disposable surface that simplifies cleanup and maintains infection control. For the patient, this means a clean, hygienic environment for their examination or procedure.
SECONDARY & SUPPORTIVE USES
1. Absorbent Layer for Casting and Splinting: Used as an absorbent layer under plaster casts and splints.
2. Protection During Patient Transport: Placed under patients during transport to protect stretchers from soiling.
3. Home Healthcare: Essential for patients requiring long-term care at home.
4. Pediatric Care: Used in cribs and changing areas for infants and children.
5. Bariatric Patient Care: Larger underpads for bariatric patients.
6. Hospice and Palliative Care: Provides comfort and dignity for terminally ill patients.

H. pylori Test Strips
$1.00
H. pylori Test Strips are rapid, lateral flow immunochromatographic devices used for the qualitative detection of Helicobacter pylori antigens in human stool. As a non-invasive stool antigen test (SAT), it provides a convenient and reliable method for diagnosing active H. pylori infection and confirming eradication after therapy, with results available in under 15 minutes. Ideal for use in clinics and outpatient settings, it aids in the management of dyspepsia and peptic ulcer disease. Proper sample handling, adherence to pre-test medication restrictions, and strict biohazard precautions are essential for obtaining accurate results.
Hepatitis C Test Kit
$1.00
The Hepatitis C Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic device for the detection of Hepatitis C virus antibodies or RNA in human blood, serum, or plasma samples. Available in rapid, laboratory immunoassay, and molecular formats, it screens for HCV infection, confirms active infection with RNA testing, and monitors treatment response. With high sensitivity and specificity exceeding 99%, it is essential for identifying infected individuals, linking them to curative direct-acting antiviral therapy, and confirming cure. Essential applications include risk-based screening of high-risk populations, birth cohort screening of baby boomers, evaluation of acute hepatitis, management of occupational exposures, and monitoring of antiviral therapy that can cure over 95% of infections. All patient samples must be handled with universal precautions, and positive antibody results require confirmatory testing.
Oxygen Mask (Adult/Infant/Paediatric)
$1.00
An Oxygen Mask is a disposable, single-use interface used to deliver supplemental oxygen from a medical gas supply to a patient's airways. Available in types for specific clinical needs—Simple Mask for low-flow therapy, Venturi Mask for precise FiO2 control (especially in COPD), and Non-Rebreather Mask for emergency high-flow delivery—and in sizes for adults, children, and infants. Correct selection and application, including ensuring the proper oxygen flow rate for the mask type, are essential for effective therapy and patient safety. Adherence to strict fire safety protocols is non-negotiable due to the combustion risk posed by enriched oxygen environments.
Rapid Test Kits (HIV, HBV, HCV, Malaria)
$1.00
Rapid Test Kits for HIV, HBV, HCV, and Malaria are single-use, immunochromatographic devices designed for the quick, preliminary screening of these critical infectious diseases at the point of care. By detecting specific antibodies or antigens in a small blood sample (or oral fluid for some HIV tests), they provide a visual result within 15-30 minutes without the need for laboratory equipment. Their primary role is to expand access to testing in community and resource-limited settings, enabling immediate counseling, triage, and referral for confirmatory testing and treatment. As essential tools in public health, they are characterized by their simplicity, speed, and critical importance in early diagnosis and outbreak response.
Vacutainer (EDTA/PLAIN)
$1.00
Vacutainer (EDTA/PLAIN) is a sterile, evacuated blood collection tube (lavender/purple top) containing EDTA anticoagulant (K2EDTA or K3EDTA, 1.5-2.0 mg/mL blood) for hematology, blood banking, flow cytometry, and molecular diagnostics. Available in draw volumes 2-10 mL, glass or PET plastic, with color-coded stopper and sterile interior. EDTA chelates calcium, preventing coagulation while preserving cellular morphology. Primary clinical applications include complete blood count (CBC) and differential, blood typing and antibody screening (ABO/Rh, Coombs), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) testing, flow cytometry and immunophenotyping (CD4 counts), molecular diagnostics and PCR testing, sickle cell screening and hemoglobin electrophoresis, and parasitology (malaria smears). Critical safety precautions include filling to completion (correct blood-to-additive ratio), gentle inversion 8-10 times immediately after collection, never using for chemistry or coagulation testing, and proper disposal as biohazardous waste.
