Designed to Stand Out - Fluro-Tec® provides a simple, effective solution to make intra-operative detection easier and less stressful, complementing your processes designed to eliminate the risk of retained surgical swabs and sponges.
Intra-operative detection — Fluro-Tec® swabs and sponges contain a fluorescent, non-absorbent green-yellow thread to make a blood soaked Fluro-Tec® 9.5 times more visible# to the naked eye and even more detectable under UV light.
Extra protection against 'never events' — all our Fluro-Tec® sponges and swabs use fluorescent stitching and are x-ray detectable, ensuring effective post-operative detection.
A review of our sponge portfolios identified that a simple product change can deliver significant environmental and other clinical performance benefits.
