Duoderm Dressings

Designed to reduce the risk of further skin breakdown due to friction, DuoDERM® Extra Thin Dressings can be used as a primary hydrocolloid dressing for dry to lightly exuding wounds. It can be used as a secondary dressing to secure an AQUACEL® Dressing or an AQUACEL® Ag Dressing.

The European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP) and The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP) guidelines recommend the usage of hydrocolloids for the management of pressure ulcers. DuoDERM® Extra Thin Dressing can be used to manage stage I and stage II pressure ulcers.

Hydrocolloid Dressing

Hydrocolloid dressings like the products in the DuoDERM® range serve a dual function. They both protect wounds from infection and allow the body to heal these wounds. The environment created by a Hydrocolloid dressing is both insulated and moist, creating an ideal setting for healing. For added convenience, Hydrocolloid dressings are easy to apply and don’t need changing as often.
