Usage/Application

Ideal for post-operative wounds, surgical sites, minor procedures, cuts, abrasions, dressing changes, clinics, hospitals, long-term care facilities, assisted living, home care, and caregiver-supported wound care where a low-adherent island dressing has been recommended. Apply the island dressing to clean, dry skin so the absorbent pad covers the wound and the adhesive border secures it without separate tape. The low-adherent pad helps reduce sticking to the wound and supports more comfortable dressing changes, and the dressing suits post-operative and surgical sites or other wounds with light to moderate drainage. Remove it gently, especially on fragile skin, to reduce the risk of skin tears, select the size appropriate to the wound, change it according to the wound-care plan, monitor the wound for signs of infection, and follow the care team's guidance, since surgical, deep, infected, or non-healing wounds require professional assessment.
