Dermarite Silicone Dressing ComfiTel™ Silicone 3 x 4", 10/BX

Silicone Dressing ComfiTel™ Silicone 3 x 4", 10/BX

ComfiTel silicone dressing is a sterile contact layer dressing sized 3 x 4 inch. It works well for buyers who need a gentle wound contact layer that adheres to intact skin without sticking to the wound bed, helping support more comfortable dressing changes. The semi-transparent, conformable mesh lets exudate pass through to an absorbent secondary dressing.

Good Fit For

• Using a protective barrier between a wound and an outer dressing
• Wound care where gentler dressing removal is important
• Managing wounds with dry to heavily exudating drainage

Key Features

• Silicone contact layer adheres gently to intact skin, not to the wound
• Porous mesh design allows exudate to pass through to absorbent dressing materials
• Helps reduce pain and risk of damage to the wound during use
• Conformable construction supports comfortable placement
• Semi-transparent design helps with wound assessment
• Sterile 3 x 4 inch rectangular dressing for wound protection under an outer dressing

Applications and Usage

• Venous ulcer dressing protocols that use a contact layer under an absorbent secondary dressing
• Pressure ulcer care where a non-adherent wound contact layer is preferred

• First- and second-degree burn dressing applications
• Cuts, lacerations, and abrasions that need a conformable contact layer

Packaging and Handling
