Description

A transparent film dressing with an absorbent pad. The film is impermeable to water and bacteria, which protects the wound or I.V. site from contamination and infection. The film has a high MVTR, which enables continuous moisture and oxygen exchange to support normal skin function, as well as preventing maceration and maintaining an optimal healing environment. The low-reflective surface provides high visibility to facilitate periwound monitoring. Latex-free.

Indications

Surgical wounds, minor cuts, abrasions, lacerations, puncture sites and low-to-moderately exuding wounds.

Contraindications

Allergy or sensitivity to components; fragile or easily damaged skin
