Medline Bordered Gauze Wound Dressing, Sterile, 15 Count

The composite island dressing features four distinct layers, making it suitable for versatile use as either a primary or secondary dressing. The first layer is a nonadherent contact layer that protects the wound site without sticking to granulating tissue. The second layer is a soft pad that absorbs drainage and provides cushioning. The third layer is a water-resistant nonwoven backing with an adhesive border to securely hold the dressing in place.

The dressing has a deluxe soaker pad with a non-woven adhesive border. The water-resistant backing makes it ideal for use on incision sites, pressure ulcers, and partial and full-thickness wounds. However, it is contraindicated for third-degree burns and patients with a known sensitivity to the dressing components.

The easy-to-use sterile adhesive island wound dressing measures 4" x 10" with a 2" x 8" pad. This size and configuration allows for versatile application and coverage of a variety of wound types and sizes.

The water-resistant backing prevents strike-through of exudates, helping to maintain a moist wound environment optimal for healing. The adhesive border securely holds the dressing in place, preventing displacement and maintaining the integrity of the wound dressing.

The soft, absorbent pad effectively manages moderate to highly exudating wounds, drawing fluid away from the wound bed and preventing maceration of the periwound skin. The nonadherent contact layer ensures the dressing can be easily removed without disrupting the wound bed or causing pain to the patient.

This composite island dressing is designed to provide comprehensive wound care for a wide range of acute and chronic wound types. The multi-layered construction allows healthcare professionals to tailor the dressing usage to the specific needs of the patient and the wound.

Whether utilized as a primary dressing for an incision or as a secondary dressing to manage exudate on a pressure ulcer, this versatile product offers reliable protection, absorption, and adherence to support the healing process. Its ease of application and removal also benefits both the clinician and the patient, enhancing the overall wound management experience.

In summary, this composite island dressing with its deluxe soaker pad, water-resistant backing, and multi-functional layers offers a comprehensive solution for the management of a variety of wound types, while prioritizing patient comfort and clinician convenience.
