Description
Care teams stock the Dukal Sterile Iodoform Packing Strip as a standard packing strip for daily procedures, supplied sterile and sized 2" x 5 yd. Item 273 is defined by one trait above the rest: made of a woven gauze fabric which reduces linting and fraying. Item 273 is sold as a box (12 BTL/BX) so supply rooms can stock the exact quantity the department uses.

Main Description
Supply staff reach for this packing strip every day, because routine care runs on standard items being exactly where the last shift left them. The 2" x 5 yd dimensions suit the procedures item 273 is stocked for, and the sterile presentation matches the workflow of the departments that use it. Dukal builds item 273 around a simple idea: iodoform provides odor-resistance to the packing strip. Ordered by the box, item 273 slots into par-level systems without repacking or relabeling at receiving. Published specifications for item 273 remove the guesswork from substitution decisions when a department standardizes on a single number.
