Smith & Nephew Opsite Post-Op Transparent Waterproof Dressing with Highly Absorbent Pad 3-3/4" x 3-3/8", Low Adherence, Latex-Free (Box of 20 Each)
The Smith & Nephew Opsite Post-Op Transparent Waterproof Dressing is designed for post-operative wound care, combining the benefits of a high Moisture Vapour Transmission Rate (MVTR) film with a highly absorbent, low-adherent pad. This dressing offers excellent protection and comfort for patients during recovery.
Features:
- Waterproof & Shower-Friendly: The hydrophilic polyurethane film is waterproof, allowing patients to shower without the need to change the dressing.
- Bacterial Barrier: Helps prevent extrinsic contamination and reduce the risk of infection by acting as a bacterial barrier.
- High MVTR (Moisture Vapour Transmission Rate): The patented REACTIC film is more permeable to water vapor than ordinary films when exposed to moisture, enabling excess moisture to evaporate into the atmosphere.
- Highly Absorbent Pad: The pad rapidly absorbs exudate and allows lateral spread across the dressing, helping to reduce the risk of skin maceration.
- Low-Adherence Wound Contact Layer: Designed to minimize trauma during dressing removal, it ensures that the wound site stays protected without adhering to it.
- Conformable & Comfortable: The dressing is soft and non-restrictive, making it easy for patients to wear comfortably.
- Latex-Free Formula: The dressing is latex-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
- Round Corners & Thin Film: These features reduce lifting or snagging, helping the dressing stay in place longer.
