-
Moisture-Resistant Barrier: The outer barrier protects against urine, feces, and other contaminants, helping to maintain a clean environment for the wound.

Extended Wear Time: Suitable for use up to 7 days or as directed by a healthcare professional, this dressing minimizes skin discomfort and reduces the frequency of changes.
