sterile adhesive film

Sterile adhesive film is a medical-grade barrier designed to protect wounds and surgical sites from contaminants while allowing for breathability. This type of film is critical in preventing infection and promoting optimal healing conditions. The 3M TEGADERM CHG 10x15.5cm is an example of such a product. It features a transparent, waterproof design that adheres securely to the skin, maintaining a sterile environment around the wound. The addition of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) provides an antimicrobial effect, further enhancing the protection against bacterial contamination. Ideal for use in healthcare settings, this sterile adhesive film is suitable for various applications, including post-operative care, managing IV sites, and covering minor injuries.
