Solventum™ Tegaderm™ Absorbent Clear Acrylic Dressing 90801
Transparent Absorbent Dressing - Medium Oval - 11.1 x 12.7 cm (4.375 x 5 in) - Pad 6 x 7.6 cm (2.375 x 3 in) - Box of 10
The Solventum™ Tegaderm™ Absorbent Clear Acrylic Dressing 90801 is a transparent, absorbent dressing that offers extended wear time and a clear view of healing wounds. Tegaderm is a Solventum brand, formerly 3M, and this dressing was previously sold as the 3M Tegaderm Absorbent Clear Acrylic Dressing. The dressing's transparency lets clinicians monitor the wound without removing it, and the clear design takes the guesswork out of positioning the pad over the wound during application.
A novel acrylic polymer pad is designed to manage low to moderate wound drainage, and the dressing does not break down in the wound. A low friction outer surface minimizes the potential for friction and shear, and the dressing allows for gentle removal from the skin. The transparent film provides a barrier to external contaminants, body fluids, bacteria and viruses while the dressing remains intact without leakage. In vitro testing shows a viral barrier to viruses 27 nm in diameter or larger. The 90801 is a medium oval dressing measuring 11.1 x 12.7 cm (4.375 x 5 in), with a 6 x 7.6 cm (2.375 x 3 in) absorbent pad. Each box contains 10 dressings.
