Frequently asked questions
Is this dressing safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, this dressing is specifically designed for patients with fragile or sensitive skin. The silicone gel adhesive is engineered to adhere only to dry, healthy skin rather than the wound bed, ensuring a gentle, painless, and atraumatic removal process.
Can I reposition the dressing after applying it?
Yes, the McKesson Lite Hydrocellular Foam Dressing is designed to remain adherent even after being repositioned, giving you flexibility during application.
Is the material free of latex?

Is this suitable for chronic wounds?
Absolutely. It is designed for both acute and chronic wounds, including venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers, by maintaining an optimal moist environment for healing.
Does the adhesive stick to the wound itself?
No, the silicone adhesive is engineered to adhere only to healthy, dry skin surrounding the wound. This protects the healing tissue and prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound bed.
How effectively does it handle wound drainage?
The inner core is a highly absorbent foam pad designed to manage exudate effectively while maintaining a secure seal to prevent leaks, ensuring moisture management around the wound site.
How does it protect the wound from bacteria?
The dressing features a specialized, breathable outer film layer. This film allows for necessary airflow to the wound while acting as a robust barrier to prevent the penetration of external moisture and bacteria.
Are these dressings individually sterile?

Is this a borderless dressing?
Yes, this is a non-bordered, square dressing measuring 3 x 3 inches. Its borderless design offers increased versatility, allowing it to be used on various wound locations.
Can this be used for home health care?
