3M Tegaderm Silicone Foam dressings
Pressure injury prevention
Annually, more than 2.5 million people in the U.S. develop pressure injuries1, and these can lead to longer hospital stays and higher re-admissions. Using a soft silicone, multi-layered, foam dressing is recommended by NPIAP and AORN as part of a comprehensive pressure injury program.
Tegaderm Silicone Foam Dressing is easy to apply, even in challenging locations like the sacrum. Advanced high-performing adhesive enables interval monitoring without loss of adhesion, adhering well to both dry skin and in the presence of moisture.
