Description
Tegaderm Film Dressing
Tegaderm Film Dressing is a sterile, vapour permeable transparent film dressing with a transparent window that allows monitoring of the site, making it perfect for I.V. and catheter sites. It can also be used for a range of other applications including first and second degree burns, skin graft donor sites, minor abrasions, superficial decubitus ulcers and other primarily closed clean surgical wounds.
Tegaderm Film Dressing protects from external contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, blood and body fluids and in vitro testing shows that the transparent film provides a viral barrier from viruses 27 nm in diameter or larger while the dressing remains intact without leakage. The film is breathable to let oxygen in and moisture vapour out and it helps to maintain a moist environment for optimum wound healing and facilitate autolytic debridement.
Tegaderm Film Dressing flexes with the skin for greater patient comfort and can he worn for up to 7 days to minimise dressing changes and can even be safely left on patient's skin during radiotherapy treatment.
