ABSTRACT:
A cleaning device for medical purposes is provided, comprising a sealable sponge portion which encapsulates a pressure rupturable pouch containing liquid of a cleaning, antiseptic or similar nature, the pouch being sealed within the sponge. The sponge and pouch are usually sterilized following manufacture and packaging.
Just prior to use, pressure is applied to the exterior of the sponge causing the pouch to rupture. This forces the liquid ingredients to spread outwardly from the sponge interior to the surface of the sponge. A fairly uniform supply of liquid on the sponge surface is thereby made available for use.
A non-woven absorbent material may be sealed inside the sponge to absorb some of the liquid when it is released from the ruptured pouch. The absorbent material also functions to distribute the liquid along the sponge and provide a more uniform supply of liquid to the sponge surface.
