Surgilube Lubricating Jelly, 3 g packet, Box of 144

Description

Regardless of the role, setting, and department you work in, if you work in the medical field in any patient care capacity, you already know that there are a few things that no medical professional can function without — a working pen, a trusty stethoscope, and quality lubricating jelly, just to name a few. The purpose of surgical lubricant is to reduce friction that causes discomfort in any procedure where something is inserted into a body orifice. Not only does this make the job of the medical professional much easier and safer, it also helps to increase patient comfort and decrease their anxiety. Here, we will discuss a few of the practical uses of SurgiLube®. But, don’t take our word for it, we will let the medical professionals who use it in the field regularly tell you. When the foilpac® was released in 1961, its “single use” concept and design forever changed the mindset of the medical community. Today, more than 50 years later, as health systems continue to look for ways to reduce the risk of cross contamination, Surgilube’s single use foilpac® continues to lead the way.
