3M™ Adaptic™ Non-Adherent Dressing | 3" x 8"

The 3M™ Adaptic™ Non-Adhering Dressing is a versatile, advanced wound care product designed to protect the wound while allowing exudate to pass through to an absorbent secondary dressing. Measuring 3 inches by 8 inches, this dressing is ideal for various wound types, including ulcers, burns, surgical incisions, and other wounds where a non-adherent contact layer is beneficial.

Product Features:

• Non-Adhering Material: Made from a unique knitted cellulose acetate fabric, the dressing is coated with a petrolatum emulsion, which prevents it from sticking to the wound bed. This feature minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes, promoting patient comfort.
• Flexible and Conformable: The dressing conforms to the wound's contours, ensuring proper coverage and adherence to difficult-to-dress areas. Its flexible nature allows for movement, making it ideal for use on joints or areas with high mobility.
• Promotes Healing Environment: The open mesh design facilitates airflow to the wound, which helps maintain a moist healing environment. This environment is crucial for faster wound healing and reduced risk of infection.
• Reduces Risk of Maceration: By allowing exudate to pass through to a secondary dressing, the 3M™ Adaptic™ dressing helps reduce the risk of maceration, ensuring the surrounding skin remains healthy and intact.
• Versatile Use: Suitable for a wide range of wounds, including skin tears, lacerations, graft and donor sites, abrasions, and other wounds with fragile or sensitive tissue. It can be used in conjunction with an absorbent secondary dressing or as a protective layer under compression therapy.

Benefits:

• Easy Application and Removal: The non-adherent properties and flexibility make the dressing easy to apply and remove, reducing discomfort for patients during dressing changes.
• Cost-Effective Solution: The dressing's compatibility with various secondary dressings makes it a cost-effective solution for different wound care needs, reducing the frequency of dressing changes.
• Sterile Packaging: Each dressing is individually wrapped and sterile, ensuring the highest standards of hygiene and safety are maintained during application.
