Opsite Post-Op 10cm x 12cm x10

Opsite Post-Op 10cm x 12cm x10 dressings combine the features of the current OPSITE Post-Op dressings with the high MVTR REACTIC hydrophilic polyurethane film used to manufacture OPSITE IV3000 Transparent Adhesive Film Dressings.

The patented REACTIC film is 3 to 8 times more pTagsermeable to water vapor than standard film dressings. It can “switch” in the presence of moisture allowing excess moisture to transpire off.

Features

• Creates a barrier against bacteria reducing the risk of infection in the wound

• Rounded corners help keep the dressing in place for longer

• Film has a molecular structure that allows unwanted moisture to evaporate

• Absorbent pad supports lateral absorbency to help prevent skin maceration and minimize dressing changes

• Conformable, easy to remove and apply

• Impermeable to water and body fluids, allowing the patient to shower without changing dressings

The Opsite Post-Op 10cm x 12cm x10 is a sterile, waterproof dressing designed to cover wounds, surgical sites, or other injuries while promoting healing. This dressing features a semi-permeable film that allows moisture vapor to escape but prevents water and bacteria from entering. The low-adherent pad in the center of the dressing absorbs exudate, helping to maintain a moist wound environment, which aids in healing. It is designed for easy application and removal without causing trauma to the wound or surrounding skin.

The adhesive border provides secure fixation and prevents the dressing from slipping, even during movement. Opsite Post-Op dressings are commonly used after surgeries, in first-aid for minor cuts or abrasions, and for wounds where waterproof protection is required. The waterproof nature of the dressing enables patients to bathe or shower without the dressing losing its adhesion or compromising the wound’s protection.

This dressing is hypoallergenic and latex-free, making it suitable for patients with sensitive skin or allergies. The transparent film allows healthcare providers to monitor the wound without removing the dressing, reducing the need for frequent changes. Opsite Post-Op dressings are available in various sizes, with the 10cm x 12cm version being ideal for medium-sized wounds or surgical incisions.

The dressing’s thin, flexible construction ensures comfort, even on areas of the body that bend or stretch. Its breathable nature helps to reduce the risk of maceration and enhances patient comfort. The dressing is easy to apply, with a peel-off backing for quick and sterile application.

In clinical settings, Opsite Post-Op dressings help reduce the risk of infection, as the dressing acts as a barrier against contaminants. It also minimizes pain during dressing changes, as the non-stick pad prevents adherence to the wound bed. The durability of the dressing ensures it stays in place for an extended period, reducing the need for frequent changes and associated costs.

For post-operative care, this dressing is highly regarded due to its balance of protection, comfort, and ease of use. It supports faster recovery by maintaining an optimal environment for wound healing. Whether in a hospital setting or home care, the Opsite Post-Op 10cm x 12cm dressing is a reliable choice for effective wound management.
