Frequently Asked Questions
What does the z-fold presentation mean?
Z-fold means the dressing is pre-folded in a concertina pattern that feeds smoothly into a wound cavity during packing. This presentation eliminates the need to unfold or cut the dressing during an emergency, saving critical seconds. The responder simply feeds the folded dressing into the wound while maintaining direct pressure.
How does ChitoSAM differ from ChitoGauze?
Both use chitosan haemostatic technology. ChitoSAM 100 is made from 100% pure chitosan for maximum haemostatic performance. ChitoGauze XR Pro uses a chitosan-coated gauze substrate. Both are effective haemostatic dressings - ChitoSAM provides higher chitosan concentration while ChitoGauze provides the familiar handling characteristics of gauze.
