McKesson Hydrocolloid Dressing, 6 x 7 Inch Sacral

McKesson Hydrocolloid Dressing, 6 x 7 Inch Sacral

The McKesson Hydrocolloid Dressing is a self-adhesive wound dressing shaped specifically for the sacral area, making it ideal for managing pressure injuries, ulcers, and other wounds on hard-to-dress body contours. Designed for patients, caregivers, and clinicians alike, this dressing creates a moist wound environment that supports the body's natural healing process while protecting the wound from outside contamination.

The dressing works by combining a highly absorbent inner layer that pulls in wound exudate with a moisture-resistant outer film backing that keeps water and bacteria out. As it absorbs drainage, the hydrocolloid forms a protective gel that keeps the wound bed moist and comfortable. Its light beige, semi-transparent design allows you to monitor the wound without removing the dressing, and the extended wear time means fewer changes and less disruption to healing tissue.

This 6 x 7 inch sacral dressing offers up to 7-day wear time depending on wound conditions and drainage. It is available in multiple purchase options, from a single dressing up to bulk cases, so you can order exactly the quantity your care routine requires. This item is typically FSA/HSA eligible.
