3M Tegaderm Transparent Film Dressing 1624W 60mm x 70mm (100s)
The 3M Tegaderm Transparent Film Dressing 1624W (60mm x 70mm, Pack of 100) is a sterile, waterproof, and breathable polyurethane film dressing designed to protect wounds, IV sites, and catheter insertion sites. Its transparent design allows continuous visual monitoring of the covered area without removing the dressing.
Featuring a hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive, Tegaderm provides a secure yet flexible fit that conforms comfortably to the skin. The breathable, moisture-vapour-permeable film allows moisture vapour to escape while helping protect the covered area against external contaminants, including bacteria, viruses, blood and body fluids.
The dressing features a convenient picture-frame delivery system that makes application easier and helps ensure accurate placement. Suitable for healthcare and clinical environments, Tegaderm 1624W can also be used to protect minor wounds, cover surgical incisions, and reduce skin friction.
