"Areza Island Wound Dressing (Bordered Gauze) is a non-adherent, minimally absorptive, and self-adhesive dressing. The central pad (6""x4"") is composed of non-woven viscose fibers which on the facing surface are covered with a fenestrated non-adherent layer. The backing of the dressing (8""x6"") is made of polyurethane and Spunlace fabric and is covered with adhesives. The non-adherent wound-facing layer provides this dressing the unique ability to be used on minimally exuding wounds. This conformable dressing may reduce the risk of physical damage and bacterial contamination of wounds. The dressings are individually packed and are sterile."
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.
