Description

3M™ Tegaderm™ Transparent Film Dressings offer an effective solution for covering and protecting catheter sites and wounds. With dimensions of 2.75 x 2 inches, these dressings maintain a moist environment conducive to optimal wound healing while securely adhering to the skin.

The dressing is designed to be gentle on the skin, making it suitable for extended wear while firmly holding catheters and other medical devices in place. Its hypoallergenic properties minimize the risk of skin irritation or allergic reactions, enhancing patient comfort. The dressing’s conformable nature allows it to flex with the skin, adapting to movement and providing a secure fit.

The transparent film allows for easy monitoring of the site without the need for frequent dressing changes, reducing patient discomfort and intervention. Tegaderm™ dressings are available in unique shapes and designs tailored to meet both intravenous (I.V.) and wound care needs.
