A wound covering typically in the form of a multi-layered pad having a material or substance on its skin-contact surface (e.g., silicone gel), or designed to be soaked in saline prior to application, to prevent adherence to the wound bed thereby decreasing wound trauma potential; it does not contain an antimicrobial agent. It is typically used to absorb wound blood/exudates while protecting the wound from external contamination and maintaining a moist internal environment. It may be used as a primary or secondary dressing to treat chronic and postoperative wounds, burns, ulcers, abrasions, cuts, or puncture sites; it is not a dedicated burn dressing. This is a single-use device.
