McKesson Wound Contact Layer Dressing, Sterile

The McKesson Wound Contact Layer Dressing is a sterile silicone dressing designed to sit directly against the wound bed while an outer absorbent dressing manages exudate. Its low-adherent silicone layer helps protect delicate new tissue and minimizes trauma to the wound and surrounding skin during dressing changes, making it a practical choice for both clinical and home wound care settings.

This versatile contact layer is suitable for a wide range of wound types, including skin tears, skin abrasions, blistering, lacerations, surgical wounds, partial thickness burns (excluding third degree), and leg and foot ulcers. It can also be used as a protective barrier over superficial, non-discharging wounds and on areas of skin that are especially fragile, helping reduce the risk of further irritation.

Because the dressing is designed to work in conjunction with a secondary absorbent dressing, it allows fluid to pass through to the outer layer while the contact layer itself remains gentle against the wound. This two-layer approach supports a moist wound healing environment while simplifying dressing changes for caregivers and patients alike.

The McKesson wound contact layer dressing is available in multiple sizes to accommodate wounds of varying dimensions — simply select your preferred size above to match your specific wound care needs.
