DuoDERM Signal Dressing are an advanced hydrocolloid wound dressing featuring a change indicator and adhesive tapered edges. Setting it apart from other hydrocolloid dressings is its unique ConvaTec hydrocolloid formulation. The adhesive hydrocolloid matrix, combined with an outer film, allows for moisture vapour permeability while forming an occlusive barrier against bacteria, viruses, dirt, and water. Designed for the management of lightly to moderately exuding wounds, it proves effective in various wound care scenarios.
Its thin polyurethane film not only acts as a bacterial and viral barrier but also provides a waterproof layer over the dressing, ensuring full protection. Furthermore, its ease of application and removal without causing harm to newly formed tissue make it a preferred choice for wound management.
With its unique gelling action upon removal, DuoDERM Signal Dressing minimises damage to the wound bed, ensuring patient comfort. The dressing's translucent backing aids in proper placement and initial monitoring of the wound, while its tapered edge conforms to challenging body contours, reducing bunching and shear effects.
