Intended purpose

The Betamix Neurosurgical Patty is used to remove blood and fluids from the surgical field.

Functional description

Due to the absorbency of the Nonwoven Cotton raw material from which the Betamix Neurosurgical Patty is manufactured, it absorbs the fluids in the operation area when applied to. The presence of the Barium Sulphate (BaSO₄) ensures its visibility under X-rays in the operation area. The follow-up thread in the product is also used to monitor the product in the operation area and to determine its location.
