Product Feature
Designed to reduce the
risk of further skin breakdown due to friction.
DuoDERM® Extra Thin
Dressing can be used as a primary hydrocolloid dressing for dry to lightly
exuding wounds.
Product Function
A thin polyurethane film
provides a bacterial and viral barrier when the dressing remains intact and
without leakage.
The film provides a
waterproof barrier over the dressing.
The dressing can be
removed without damaging newly formed tissue.
It is designed to reduce
the risk of further skin breakdown due to friction by preventing contact with
clothes/bed linen.
It can be used on the
body as a primary or secondary dressing.
It can be used on skin
tears and superficial wounds, dry to lightly exuding wounds, newly-formed
tissue or skin at risk of further breakdown.
Ease of Application
The translucent backing
enhances dressing placement and initial monitoring of the wound.
The dressings are easy
to use, mold and can be cut to shape to dress awkward areas.
Usage
1. Wash your hands,
cleanse and rinse the wound and then dry the surrounding skin.
2. Measure the wound to
select the appropriate dressing size, allowing a 3.0cm (1¼ -inch) overlap on
intact skin around the whole wound.
3. Warm the dressing
between your hands.
4. Remove the
"top" white release paper, being careful to minimize finger contact
with the adhesive surface.
5. Hold the adhesive
side of the dressing over the wound.
6. Align the dressing
with the center of the wound.
7. Gently apply the
center part of the dressing.
8. Remove the
"bottom" white release paper while rolling the dressing in place -
but don't stretch it.
9. Repeat the above
procedure on the other side and remove the clear release paper.
10. Gently mold the
dressing into place for 30-60 seconds.
11. Gently lift one
corner of the dressing.
12. Roll it away from
the wound while holding the skin away.
13. Gently lift the
other corners and pull upwards until the dressing completely peels off.
