Product Overview
The Convatec 187955 Duoderm Extra Thin Hydrocolloid Dressing is a self-adhesive wound care solution designed to support moist wound healing while maintaining a low-profile design for enhanced comfort. This 4-inch by 4-inch dressing is suited for wounds requiring minimal exudate management, such as minor abrasions, lacerations, or superficial burns.
Features:
- Hydrocolloid Technology: Promotes moist wound healing by interacting with wound exudate to form a protective gel.
- Extra-Thin & Flexible: Ensures discreet wear and conforms easily to body contours without restricting movement.
- Breathable & Self-Adhesive: Allows oxygen exchange while securely adhering to the skin, reducing the need for additional tape.
- Water-Resistant: Protects the wound from external contaminants and moisture while maintaining a sealed barrier.
Specifications:
- Material: Hydrocolloid (sodium carboxymethylcellulose) with a polyurethane film backing.
- Size: 4 inches x 4 inches.
- Sterility: Individually sterile packaged.
- Indications: Suitable for minor to moderately exuding wounds, pressure injuries, and donor sites.
Use Suggestion:
Apply the dressing to clean, dry skin over the wound, ensuring full coverage with a 1–2 cm overlap on healthy skin. Replace every 3–7 days or as needed, depending on wound condition and exudate levels. Ideal for areas requiring flexibility, such as joints or curved surfaces.
