Abstract: Abstract Wound is inevitable in hospital and home care. Common wounds may be due to trauma, burns, surgery, pressure ulcer, diabetic wounds etc. Measuring the wound size with sterile devise is not available in the market. Healthcare professionals use clean inch tape or ruler to measure the length and width of the wound. These clean devices can cause wound infection. Treating wound infection is not only expensive but also increase painful days for patient and family. If we have paraffin gauze with printed measurements from millimeter to centimeter, it will be easy to measure in a sterile manner with minimum handling of the wound. The rectangular shape aid in wound dressing and wound size assessment for vertical, horizontal or oblique long wounds.
