• Tegaderm Film consists of a thin film backing with a non-latex, hypoallergenic adhesive.
  • The dressing is breathable, allowing good oxygen and moisture vapor exchange. It is waterproof and impermeable to liquids, bacteria, and viruses. An intact dressing protects the site from outside contamination.
  • Tegaderm Film can be used to cover and protect the wounds, skin breakdown and closed surgical incisions and maintain a moist environment for wound healing.

Precautions

  • Stop any bleeding at the site before applying the dressing.
  • Do not stretch the dressing during application as tension can cause skin trauma.

  • Antimicrobial ointments containing polyethylene glycols may compromise the strength of the Tegaderm HP Transparent Film Dressings.
  • Tegaderm Transparent Dressings should not be re-sterilized by gamma, E-beam or steam methods.
