Frequently asked questions
Will this dressing stick to my wound?
No, the central pad is specifically engineered to be non-adherent. This ensures that the dressing does not stick to the wound site, which helps minimize trauma and discomfort during dressing changes.
Is this suitable for home care use?
Yes, it is designed for use in a variety of settings, including clinical, home care, and first-aid environments. Its all-in-one design makes it easy for caregivers or patients to apply securely.
How absorbent is the central pad?
The central pad is highly absorbent. It is composed of a 12-ply, 100% USP cotton sponge, which is designed to effectively draw exudate away from the wound bed to maintain a cleaner healing environment.
Can I use this as a primary dressing?
This product is primarily recommended for use as a secondary dressing to cover and protect primary wound treatments, though the integrated adhesive border provides excellent secure coverage.
Does it provide a barrier against contaminants?
Yes, the integrated adhesive border serves as a protective barrier, sealing the wound from external contaminants while ensuring the dressing stays firmly in place during wear.
Are these dressings sterile?

What are the exact dimensions of the absorbent area?

Is the material safe for sensitive skin?
The pad is made from 100% USP cotton, which is a high-quality, standard material for medical gauze, ensuring it is gentle on the wound environment.
Does the adhesive border cause irritation upon removal?
The dressing is designed to be secure while remaining comfortable for the patient. The non-adherent central pad specifically aids in painless removal, while the border is meant to hold the dressing stationary without unnecessary bulk.
Is this a multi-ply dressing?
