DuoDerm Signal Dressing Range

DuoDERM® Signal™ Dressing is a primary dressing for low-to-moderately exuding wounds. It can also be used as a secondary dressing to secure an AQUACEL® or 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® Signal™ Dressing can be used to manage stage I and stage II pressure ulcers. Optimized Dressing Use Dressings have a visual indicator which indicates when a dressing needs changing, reducing premature dressing changes. A thin, smooth, low-friction backing is designed to reduce shearing that can prematurely dislodge the dressing. Protection A thin polyurethane film provides a bacterialand viral barrier when the dressing remains intact and without leakage. The film provides a waterproof barrier over the dressing. It is easy to apply and can be removed without damaging newly formed tissue. It helps to reduce bunching and the effect of shear through tapered edges and a smooth surface. It helps to prevent damage to the wound bed on removal through a unique gelling action, ensuring maximum comfort. S166 S167
