- Versatility allows you to use one product for many applications. Breathable film allows moisture vapor and oxygen exchange.
- For I.V. sites, water vapor and oxygen are easily exchanged to permit normal functioning of the skin.
- Provides a moist environment for enhanced wound healing, as viscous wound exudate is more slowly evaporated through the breathable film.
- Unique, thin film conforms to the body and flexes with the skin for greater patient comfort.
- Sterile, waterproof dressing provides a bacterial and viral barrier{1} to outside contaminants and allows the patient to shower.
- The dressings are available in a variety of sizes and shapes to address both wound and I.V. applications.
- Tegaderm™ Roll has a preferred delivery system that allows it to be applied with gloved hands. Tegaderm™ Roll provides all the benefits of surgical tape, while providing a waterproof, bacterial, viral {1} barrier.
- The hydrophilic nature of Tegaderm™ HP (holding power) Film adhesive makes it more adherent and useful in moist conditions.
{1} - Laboratory testing has proven Tegaderm™ and Tegaderm™ HP dressings provide a viral barrier (HIV-1 and HBV) while the dressings remain intact without leakage.
