Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the Tegaderm Absorbent Clear Acrylic Dressing come in?
The dressing is available in three oval sizes: 7.6 cm x 9.5 cm, 11.1 cm x 12.7 cm, and 14.9 cm x 15.2 cm. All three sizes feature a centred absorbent pad surrounded by a transparent adhesive border. Each box contains 10 individually sterile-packed dressings.
Can I see the wound through the dressing?
Yes, the absorbent pad is made from a transparent acrylic polymer, so you can monitor the wound without removing the dressing. This is one of the key features that sets it apart from traditional island dressings with opaque gauze pads. Reducing unnecessary dressing changes helps protect the healing wound from repeated disruption.
What types of wounds is this dressing designed for?
The dressing is commonly used on skin tears, superficial traumatic wounds, pressure injuries, abrasions, and donor sites. It can also be applied over clean, closed surgical incisions and laparoscopic incisions. It is designed for wounds with low to moderate drainage and is not intended for heavily exuding wounds. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance on your specific wound type.
Is the Tegaderm Absorbent Acrylic Dressing waterproof?
Yes, the outer film is waterproof and provides a barrier against bacteria, viruses, and bodily fluids. The low-friction surface also helps minimise the potential for friction and shear on the wound site. The dressing should be changed if it becomes loose, saturated, or if your clinician recommends it.
How is this different from a regular Tegaderm transparent dressing?
Standard Tegaderm transparent dressings are thin films with no absorbent layer. They work well as secondary dressings or for protecting intact skin, but they cannot handle wound drainage on their own. The Absorbent Clear Acrylic version includes a built-in transparent pad designed to manage low to moderate drainage while still allowing you to see the wound underneath.
