3M 90022 - DRESSING, TEGADERM, THIN, SQUARE, 4"X4", EACH

3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Thin Dressing (Square), 4 in. x 4 in., 10 cm x 10 cm

3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Thin Dressings provide a comfortable and long wear time for partial- to full-thickness wounds with low- to moderate-exudate. They combine the excellent moisture vapour permeability of a transparent film dressing with the absorbency and conformability of a unique hydrocolloid adhesive. The water-resistant dressing adhesive firmly adheres to skin in the presence of moisture, allowing bathing and bed baths.

  • Unique hydrocolloid adhesive rapidly absorbs exudate
  • Dressing ensures an optimal moist wound healing environment which has been shown to enhance healing
  • Outer film barrier protects the wound and surrounding skin from contaminants and body fluids
  • Film border creates less likelihood of edge lift
  • Water resistant allowing the patient to bathe or shower without wound contamination

Keeping an adhesive hydrocolloid dressing in place used to be a problem, but 3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Adhesive Dressings have an innovative design that provides a long wear time for partial- to full-thickness wounds with low- to moderate-exudate. Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressing maintains a moist wound environment for healing.

3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressings support wound management in two ways. First, the inner layer of hydrocolloid adhesive rapidly absorbs exudate providing significantly higher absorbency during the first 48 hours than the leading competitive dressing. In addition to excellent absorbency, the breathable outer film layer maintains a consistently high rate of moisture vapour transmission. Together, these features ensure an optimal moist wound environment, minimize the chance for damage to healthy periwound skin and provide cost-effective wear time up to seven days.

The adhesive used on the Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressings film edge is a hypoallergenic adhesive developed specifically to provide the enhanced adhesion needed in moist skin areas.

Composition/information on ingredients

Key Benefits

Clinically Effective:

  • Unique hydrocolloid adhesive rapidly absorbs exudate without breaking down or leaving residue in the wound for easier dressing application.
  • Dressing ensures an optimal moist wound healing environment which has been shown to enhance healing.
  • Smooth outer surface protects skin from shearing caused by friction, may be used for prevention of damage to intact skin.
  • May be worn up to seven days.

Protection from Contaminants:

  • Outer film barrier protects the wound and surrounding skin from contaminants and body fluids.*
  • Provides a consistently high moisture vapour transmission to reduce the potential for periwound skin maceration.

*Laboratory testing has proven that the film provides a barrier against HIV-1 and HBV while the dressing remains intact without leakage.

Patient Benefits

Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressing provides excellent patient comfort, dressing adherence and wound management. The thin, flexible, conformable, low-profile dressings are comfortable because there is less bulk to catch on bed linens. With film dressing border, there is less likelihood of edge lift. Water resistance allows the patient to shower or have a bed bath without wound contamination.

Unique Features

  • Special film bordered "notch" area allows application in close proximity to the anal opening while still providing a barrier to contamination by feces or urine.
  • Provides non-tenting border application into the gluteal cleft area to seal against incontinence and other body fluids.
  • Leaves no hydrocolloid residue in the wound for fast, easier dressing change.
  • Outer film layer provides consistently high moisture vapour transmission reducing the potential for periwound skin maceration.
  • Film border provides secure seal against outside contaminants.

The high rate of moisture vapour transmission reduces the potential for maceration. The barrier cover plus absorbency promote long wear time. For use on partial and full thickness dermal ulcers, superficial wounds, abrasions, superficial partial-thickness burns and donor sites.

3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressing Stays in Place for Long Wear Time and Potential Cost Savings

Ideal for Low- to Moderate-Draining Wounds

  • Proven up to 7 day wear time provides undisturbed moist wound environment which has been shown to enhance healing
  • Smooth outer surface helps reduce the risk of shear and friction
  • Adhesive dressings continue to adhere and protect the wound in the presence of incontinence
  • Long wear time means less dressing changes and potentially lower costs

Maximize Sacral Protection

  • The sacral shape stays in place
  • Provides non-tenting border application in the gluteal cleft to seal against incontinence
  • Easy to wipe off after incontinent episodes
  • Reduced need for unnecessary dressing changes
  • Convenient one-handed application

Variety of Shapes and Sizes

Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressings are available in three convenient shapes - oval, sacral and square. Oval and sacral shapes have a film border. The film border eliminates the need for tape and makes dressing application easier. Ovals and squares are also available in a thin dressing design.

Comfort for Patients

Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressings provide excellent patient comfort, dressing adherence and wound management. The flexible, conformable, low-profile dressings are comfortable because there is less bulk to catch on bed linens. With film dressing border, there is less likelihood of edge lift. Water resistance allows the patient to shower or to have a bed bath.

Clinically Proven

Three separate lots (6 replicates for each lot) of 3M Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressing and DuoDERM CGF Dressing were tested for absorbency. Results were recorded as grams of solution absorbed per gram of dressing material. Absorbency was measured at 2, 4, 24 and 48 hours. The results from the absorbency testing indicate that Tegaderm Hydrocolloid Dressing had a statistically significant higher mean absorbency than DuoDERM CGF Dressing at every time point (p

*In vitro testing shows that the transparent film of Tegaderm , Tegaderm Advanced, Tegaderm HP and Tegaderm CHG dressings provides a viral barrier from viruses 27 nm in diameter or larger while the dressing remains intact without leakage.

Commonly Asked Questions

Question: When would you select a thin hydrocolloid dressing?

Answer: Tegaderm Thin Hydrocolloid is intended for using as a dressing for superficial, mildly exuding partial thickness dermal wounds and skin tears.

Question: Is the dressing waterproof?

Answer: Yes. The breathable outer film layer provides a protective cover and is impermeable to liquids, bacteria and viruses*.

Question: Can you cut the dressing?

Answer: Yes. The dressing may be cut and, when overlapped, will self seal. Taping the cut edge will protect from premature lifting or edge roll.

*Laboratory testing has proven 3M Tegaderm and Tegaderm HP dressings provide a viral (HIV-1 and HBV) barrier while the dressings remain intact without leakage.
