Description

The Curad Non-Adherent Oil Emulsion Dressing, Sterile, 3" x 8", is designed to provide optimal care for lightly draining wounds. It is made of knitted, high porosity cellulose acetate, which is impregnated with U.S.P. white petrolatum in an emulsion blend. This unique formulation allows for the free flow of exudates without adhering to granulating tissue, ensuring minimal discomfort for the patient during dressing changes.

The dressing is nonocclusive, which helps to reduce the risk of skin maceration, promoting a healthier healing environment. Its ability to manage fluid without trapping moisture under the dressing ensures that the skin remains protected and able to breathe, enhancing recovery. The dressing's high porosity allows for effective fluid absorption while maintaining a barrier against contaminants.

Highly conformable, the dressing adapts well to the contours of the body, making it ideal for use on areas with varying shapes, such as joints or facial wounds. It is suitable for treating minor burns, lacerations, abrasions, suture lines, and episiotomy incisions, providing gentle yet effective protection for a wide range of wound types.
