You can find a host of different types of medical supplies at our online store including dressings, gloves, medical tape, compression bandages, gauze, skin care, scar relief, and wound closures.
Dressings are an important part of wound care as they not only help to close the wound, but they also keep it covered and safe from external particles such as dirt, chemicals, and infectious bacteria which can hinder healing and cause further complications.
We have a variety of dressings to serve a variety of functions – from varied materials, lengths, widths, thickness and more. Your doctor can help you to determine the most appropriate dressing after a specific medical procedure, or our experts at RehabPulse are available to advise on the best products to buy for at-home healthcare.
Compression bandages are elasticated tubes or wraps which provide localized pressure to an injury or specific body part to reduce swelling. Also known as elastic bandages, or tensor bandages, these are often used to support sprains, strains, and swollen limbs relating to diabetes or pregnancy.
Most frequently these bandages are non-adhesive and are simply held in place with the elastic grip, but these can also come in adhesive and latex-free variations. Compression bandages can also be used to assist in the healing of ulcers and provide coverage to protect open wounds from infection.
Gauze is very lightweight breathable woven material used to cover wounds while allowing air through to the skin to ventilate the wound as it heals.
Some gauze is designed to be used in direct application to the wound, while other gauze can be used to hold a dressing in place – these are sterile and non-sterile variations. Gauze is generally stretchy and non-adhesive, with an absorbent barrier to prevent the gauze from sticking to the wound.
Medical gloves play an essential role in preventing a wound from getting infected by limiting the transfer of external bacteria to the surface of the wound during cleaning and dressing application.
There are different types of medical gloves available for different uses including surgical gloves, examination gloves, powdered and powder-free gloves, latex and latex-free gloves, and more.
The same applies to medical tapes which come in a wide variety of styles and usages. Tape can be used to hold a dressing in place or to provide stability to a muscle for sport – and they come in latex and latex-free varieties.
It is important to ensure that the skin surrounding the wound is free from infection by cleaning the area with the correct products, and ensuring the skin remains healthy as the wound heals underneath any covers by using the correct skincare products.
You can find a number of ointments, antibacterial creams, moisturizers, conditioners, skin cleansers, and protective creams at RehabPulse. These products can also ultimately help in reducing the scars that are generally left behind as the wound heals.
Skin closure is one of the most important techniques in wound care as skin is the most effective barrier to infection within the body.
RehabPulse has a range of skin closures to promote fast and healthy wound healing.
