A medium dressing drum is a stainless steel container used for the sterilization, storage, and transportation of medical dressings, instruments, and other sterile supplies in healthcare settings such as hospitals and clinics. The medium size is suitable for holding a moderate amount of supplies, making it ideal for procedures that require a larger quantity of sterile dressings or instruments.
The dressing drum typically has perforations or vents that can be opened during sterilization to allow steam to penetrate, ensuring the contents are properly sterilized. After sterilization, the vents are closed to maintain sterility. Medium dressing drums are reusable and commonly used in operating rooms, dressing stations, and wound care settings to keep medical supplies sterile and ready for use.
