McKesson Adhesive Foam Dressing with Border, 3 x 3 Inch

McKesson Adhesive Foam Dressing with Border

The McKesson Adhesive Foam Dressing with Border is a self-adhesive wound dressing designed for the management of moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Featuring an absorbent hydrocellular foam pad surrounded by a secure adhesive border, it's ideal for caregivers, clinicians, and individuals managing pressure injuries, leg ulcers, surgical wounds, skin tears, and abrasions. Its all-in-one design combines cushioning, absorption, and a protective seal in a single, easy-to-apply dressing.

This dressing works by absorbing excess wound fluid into its inner foam pad while the skin-friendly acrylic adhesive holds it firmly in place on dry, intact skin. The adhesive border seals the wound margins to help prevent exudate from leaking onto surrounding tissue, minimizing the risk of maceration. A breathable outer film layer resists moisture and bacteria from the outside while allowing the skin to breathe, and the dressing helps maintain a moist wound environment to support better, faster healing. Because it can be gently lifted and repositioned without losing its adherent properties, positioning during application is simple and forgiving.

This dressing is highly conformable and remains intact on the skin, and it may also be used underneath compression wraps or Unna boots. It is available in multiple purchase options, including a single dressing, a box of 10, and a case of 100, so you can order the quantity that fits your needs. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred option below to add it to your cart.
