3M™ Tegaderm™ +Pad Dressing is an adhesive, transparent film dressing bonded to a low-adherent absorbent pad.
The dressing is designed to promote normal wound healing processes to occur with less pain and trauma than dry dressings. It has a hypoallergenic non-latex adhesive that provides excellent adhesion, yet is gentle to the skin and easy to remove. The bacterial and viral barrier properties of the backing will protect the wound from external contamination, allowing the patient to shower and carry on with normal life.
