McKesson Silicone Gel Adhesive without Border Silicone Foam Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

McKesson Silicone Gel Adhesive Without Border Silicone Foam Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

The McKesson Silicone Gel Adhesive Without Border Silicone Foam Dressing is an advanced wound dressing designed for both acute and chronic wounds with moderate levels of exudate. It's a practical choice for caregivers and clinicians managing venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and traumatic wounds, offering a gentle, conformable solution that supports the body's natural healing process. The borderless design lets you use it on its own or beneath a secondary dressing or securement of your choice.

This dressing works by combining an absorbent hydrocellular foam pad with a soft perforated silicone gel adhesive. The foam pad draws in and holds excess wound fluid while helping to maintain a moist wound environment that promotes healing, and it seals the wound margins to help prevent exudate from leaking onto surrounding tissue. The gentle silicone adhesive affixes to dry, intact skin and minimizes pain and trauma upon removal, making dressing changes more comfortable. Meanwhile, the breathable outer film layer resists bacteria and moisture infiltration for added protection.

This 4 x 4 inch dressing is highly conformable to fit the body's contours and is available in multiple purchase options, including a single dressing, a box of 10, and a case of 200, so you can stock the quantity that best fits your needs. Home-medical wound care supplies like this are typically FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred quantity option below to get started.
