Super Absorbent Dressing Duramax S Silicone Adhesive 8 X 10 Inch Rectangle

Duramax S super absorbent dressing is a sterile rectangular wound dressing with silicone adhesive in an 8 x 10 inch size. It fits care settings managing moderate to heavy exudate, including wounds where atraumatic removal and exudate control matter. This bordered dressing uses a breathable, non-occlusive design and a silicone contact layer that can be repositioned for patient comfort.
