Product Description:

DuoDERM" Extra Thin dressings are highly flexible, control gel formula dressings designed for use on dry to lightly exudating wounds. DuoDERM" Extra Thin dressings are particularly suitable in areas subject to friction and those requiring contouring, e.g., elbows, heels. DuoDERM" Extra Thin dressings interact with wound moisture producing a soft mass that enables removal of the dressing with little or no damage to newly formed tissues. They help isolate the wound against bacterial and other external contamination.

INDICATIONS:
* Management of superficial, dry to lightly exudating dermal ulcers.
* Post-operative wounds.
* Protective dressings.
