Transparent Adhesive Wound Dressings are breathable, sterile, transparent and waterproof, and provide a barrier to external contaminants. This instructional video will guide you on how to properly use this dressing. Many of hemodialysis patients use these products to cover the topical lidocaine utilized for numbing of the AV (arterio-venous) fistulas. This dressing is also used for the following purposes:
-Cover the gauze and other primary dressings
-Cover the stitches (sutures) in post surgical wounds
-Cover the puncture sites of venous or central venous (vein) catheters or other puncture sites
-To facilitate debridement in chronic wounds
At least one inch of the periphery of this dressing should land directly on a clean and normal skin without any other item (such as ointment, medications, other dressings, …) being in between.
