DuoDERM CGF Dressing 15×15 cm Pack of 5

DuoDERM CGF Dressings by ConvaTec are sterile hydrocolloid wound dressings designed to promote wound healing by maintaining a moist environment that supports the healing process. Their formulation interacts with wound exudate to form a gel that helps absorb fluid and support healing, while providing a protective barrier that reduces exposure to external contaminants as long as the dressing remains intact and securely sealed.

These dressings are used to manage chronic and acute exuding wounds, including pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, certain partial-thickness burns, and skin graft donor sites, as directed by a healthcare professional.

How to Use Duoderm CGF DRS 15*15 Cm

1. Clean the wound according to the appropriate medical protocol and dry the surrounding skin.

2. Select an appropriately sized dressing that covers the wound with an adequate margin of surrounding skin.
