McKesson Composite Barrier Island Dressing, Water-Resistant, Sterile - 6 x 6 Inch

Advanced All-in-One Wound Care Solution

Experience superior wound protection with our premium composite barrier island dressing that combines convenience, protection, and comfort in a single, easy-to-apply solution. This innovative medical dressing eliminates the need for multiple wound care products by integrating an absorbent non-adherent central pad, breathable adhesive border, and protective polyurethane film barrier into one comprehensive dressing system.

Multi-Layer Protection Technology

Engineered with advanced wound care technology, this composite dressing features a sophisticated multi-layer design. The central absorbent pad is specifically designed to be non-adherent, ensuring it won't stick to the wound bed during dressing changes, minimizing patient discomfort and protecting delicate healing tissue. The surrounding breathable adhesive border provides secure fixation to intact skin while allowing moisture vapor transmission to prevent maceration. The outer polyurethane film layer creates an effective barrier against water, bacteria, and external contaminants while maintaining breathability for optimal wound healing conditions.

Superior Alternative to Traditional Gauze and Tape

Say goodbye to the hassle of assembling multiple components for wound dressing. This all-in-one island dressing provides an excellent, time-saving alternative to traditional gauze and tape methods. Healthcare professionals and caregivers appreciate the simplified application process that reduces dressing change time while ensuring consistent, reliable wound protection. The pre-assembled design eliminates the risk of improper layering or inadequate coverage that can occur with manual gauze and tape application.

Water-Resistant Design for Active Lifestyles

The integrated polyurethane film backing creates an effective water barrier that permits patients to shower and bathe with confidence, maintaining normal hygiene routines without compromising wound protection. This water-resistant feature promotes patient comfort, independence, and quality of life during the healing process, while the breathable film prevents moisture buildup that could delay healing or cause skin irritation.
