3M 3590 - DRESSING, TEGADERM+PAD, 3.5"X8", EACH
3M 3590 Tegaderm +Pad Film Dressing with Non-Adherent Pad
The 3M Tegaderm + Pad Film Dressing with Non-Adherent Pad combines a transparent film with an absorbent pad, providing a moist wound environment to help enhance healing and lessen pain. This dressing has a frame delivery system to ensure quick and easy application. Tegaderm film is a breathable film that allows skin to function normally with good exchange of moisture vapour and oxygen while providing a waterproof, bacterial and viral barrier. The 3M Tegaderm Dressing is a sterile, waterproof, viral and bacterial barrier which consists of a non-adherent absorbent pad bonded to a larger thin film transparent dressing (In vitro testing shows that the transparent film provides a viral barrier from virus 27 nm in diameter or larger while the dressing remains intact without leakage).
