Dukal 4067 - Transparent Semi-Permeable Dressing, 2-3/8" x 2-3/4", 1/PK, 100 PK/BX (Cross reference for 3M 1624W Tegaderm)
The Dukal 4067 Transparent Semi Permeable Dressing is a sterile wound dressing designed to provide a protective barrier while allowing the skin to breathe. Measuring 2-3/8 x 2-3/4 inches, this dressing is supplied as 1 per pack with 100 packs per box. Its clear film construction enables continuous visibility of the wound site without removing the dressing. This product is a reliable cross reference to the 3M 1624W Tegaderm, offering similar performance in wound protection and monitoring.
Key Benefits
The transparent, semi permeable film allows moisture vapor and oxygen exchange while protecting the wound from external contaminants such as bacteria and fluids. Its sterile, single use design minimizes infection risk, while the gentle adhesive helps maintain a secure fit without damaging skin upon removal. The small size makes it ideal for IV sites, minor wounds, and small incision coverage. Clinicians benefit from reduced dressing changes and patients experience improved comfort and convenience.
Compatibility and Applications
This dressing is compatible with a wide range of clinical environments including hospitals, outpatient centers, long term care facilities, and home healthcare. Typical applications include protecting IV catheter sites, covering minor surgical incisions, and shielding superficial wounds. It is also suitable as a secondary dressing for securing wound care products in place. Its cross-reference to 3M 1624W Tegaderm makes it a dependable alternative for facilities seeking cost-effective options.
Usage Guidelines
Clean and dry the wound site and surrounding skin before application. Peel back the release liner, place the transparent film over the site, and smooth down the edges to ensure full adhesion. Avoid stretching the film during application to maintain integrity. Change the dressing as needed based on clinical assessment, or if it becomes loose, soiled, or compromised. Do not reuse or re-sterilize the dressing.
Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals
The Dukal 4067 Transparent Dressing is supplied sterile, single-use, and is manufactured to meet international quality and safety standards for medical devices. Packaging should be checked for FDA listing, CE mark, or other region-specific regulatory approvals to confirm compliance. Its adherence to these standards ensures reliable performance and safe use in medical practice.
Comparison with Competitor Products
Comparable to the 3M 1624W Tegaderm, the Dukal 4067 provides the same clear visibility and semi-permeable protection at a more economical price point. Unlike opaque gauze dressings, it allows clinicians to monitor wound healing and catheter sites without removal, reducing disruption to the site. Its strong yet skin-friendly adhesive ensures a balance of security and patient comfort.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Primary users include nurses, IV therapy specialists, wound care professionals, and home caregivers. The dressing is most commonly used for IV site protection, small wound management, and postoperative incision coverage. Patients benefit from reduced pain during dressing changes and continuous wound monitoring without repeated disruption.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Always inspect the package prior to use and discard if the sterile barrier is compromised. Apply with aseptic technique to minimize infection risk. Avoid excessive tension during application to maintain proper adhesion. Dispose of after single use according to facility protocols.
Regulatory and Safety Information
Single-use only. Ensure the sterile package is intact before opening. Apply only under the guidance of trained healthcare professionals. Follow institutional policies and local regulations for infection control and medical waste disposal. Discontinue use if skin irritation or allergic reaction occurs.
