Tegadermâ„¢ Brand
transparent dressings can be used to cover and protect catheter sites
and wounds, to maintain a moist environment for wound healing, and to
secure devices to the skin. In vitro testing shows that the transparent
film provides a viral barrier from viruses 27 nm in diameter or larger
while the dressing remains intact without leakage.
