A surgical swab (1) comprising an absorption body (2), a thread (3) for removal of the swab from the operation wound and X-ray detectable means (4) is manufactured by knitting a first web (5) for the formation of the absorption body (2) and a second web (6) for the formation of the thread (3) containing the X-ray detectable means in the form of a treated yarn (4) which is incorporated by the manufacturing of the webs (5, 6). The second web is knitted on each side of said first web. The webs (5, 6) are periodically interknitted over a short length (8) in the immediate vicinity of a severing zone (7). When severing the webs (5, 6) each absorption body (2) appears so that at its one end (10) it is connected to the one end of the thread (3) while the other end (12) of the thread is free. Being severed, the surgical swab is ready for use and the product will not fluff nor untwist when it is placed in an operation wound. By the interknitting (8) a safe connection between the thread and absorption body is established. |
