The XSCRUB™ Wound Cleansing Pad is a single-use, disposable tool designed to assist in effective wound cleaning and gentle debridement. It features a green foam layer bonded to a white base with a specially engineered patterned surface that creates alternating pressure zones. This innovative design helps lift and trap wound debris—including devitalized tissue, slough, biofilm, and bacteria—from wound crevices, providing a deeper cleanse that supports faster and more efficient healing.
Developed by Dr. Farrow, a Certified Wound Specialist Physician and the inventor of Jobst FarrowWrap®, the XSCRUB™ combines clinical expertise with advanced wound care innovation.
