Gauze used as a medical dressing is usually made of cotton. Medical gauze is useful for dressing wounds where other fabrics might stick to the wound. Gauze can be coated with polymers that inhibit sticking even further.

Coupled with the fact that neither are actually used 'wet' both the term and the technique start to take on questionable value.
