DuoDerm CGF Border Hydrocolloid Dressing, 4 x 5 Inch Triangle

ConvaTec DuoDerm CGF Border Hydrocolloid Dressing, 4 x 5 Inch Triangle

The ConvaTec DuoDerm CGF Border Hydrocolloid Dressing is an advanced wound dressing designed for the management of partial- and full-thickness wounds, pressure injuries, and other exuding wounds. Its unique 4 x 5 inch triangle shape makes it ideal for areas that are traditionally difficult to dress, such as heels, elbows, and the sacrum. Featuring ConvaTec's proven Control Gel Formula (CGF) hydrocolloid technology, this dressing helps create the moist environment recognized to support natural wound healing.

This dressing combines a foam layer with a skin-contact hydrocolloid layer for maximum effectiveness. As it interacts with wound fluid, the hydrocolloid forms a gel that helps maintain a moist wound bed while managing exudate. The wide outer foam border secures the dressing in place and eliminates the need for supplemental taping, saving time and reducing skin irritation. It also provides a barrier that protects the wound from outside contaminants, including bacteria and viruses such as HBV and HIV while the dressing remains intact.

Available as a Single dressing or a convenient Box of 5, this triangle dressing is built to conform to challenging body contours for a comfortable, secure fit. Wound care supplies like this are typically FSA/HSA eligible. Please select your preferred option below to add it to your cart.
