Wound Treatment
As regards wound treatment, the utilisation of sulphanilamide, both locally to the wound and also by the mouth, was standardised and a special label introduced for the recording of dosage given during the evacuation to the Base.
Vaseline gauze was the normal wound dressing and this was available sterilised and in ample supply. Tulle gras dressings were also supplied.
