Bordered Gauze Island Dressing 6" x 6" Sterile Latex Free 30 Per Box; Wound Dressing by Areza Medical
Non-adherent layer The non-adherent layer is a thin, fenestrated polyurethane film that faces and lays down on top of the wound’s surface. It separates the absorbent layer from the wound’s surface to prevent adherence between these two. The fenestrated (porous) structure facilitates exudate passage to the absorbent layer. Absorbent layer The absorbent layer, which is composed of viscose fiber, is found under the fenestrated, non-adherent layer that prohibits its direct contact with the wound’s surface. Invitro measurements yield an absorption capacity of 15mL, making this dressing suitable as a primary dressing for wounds with mild exudate. Adhesive layer The adhesive layer is composed of medical grade Henkel glue and is adhered onto a Spunlace, nonwoven fabric mesh. Note: Adhesive layer should only be applied onto normal, healthy skin around the wound. Backing layer The backing layer consists of a soft, white, breathable Spunlace, nonwoven fabric mesh made of polyurethane, with water resistance capabilities. The backing also functions as a barrier to dust and bacterial contamination when it is dry.

The adhesive border is to lay on top of normal skin around the wound. Absorption Capacity In-vitro measurements yield an absorption capacity of ~15mL, making this dressing suitable as a primary dressing for wounds with mild exudate. Water Resistant / No water proof Water resistant dressing delays, but does not restrict, passing of liquid through the backing layer. Delay may range from 5 minutes plus, depending on the amount of fluid. This dressing is not water, shower, or swimming proof. Do not submerge.
