Smith and Nephew Opsite Transparent Wound Dressing

Smith and Nephew Opsite Transparent Wound Dressing from HealthyKin.com is an adhesive film.  The film is moisture vapor permeable, conformable and extensible.  It is widely used to provide a moist wound environment for superficial wounds; it is also ideal for use as a secondary dressing.

OPSITE has set the standard in moist wound care by retaining the natural wound exudate. OPSITE provides moisture vapor permeability allowing excess exudate to evaporate, helping prevent skin maceration.

The OPSITE film is highly extensible and conformable, which combined with its moisture vapor permeability, means the dressing can be left in place for up to 7 days.  This minimizes interference at the wound site and reduces the amount of nursing time required.

OPSITE is resistant to water and body fluids, allowing the patient to bathe without changing dressings. It also aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination.

OPSITE has been designed to be adaptable for use on all areas of the body.  It can be easily cut into strips or shapes for application to awkward areas such as heels, elbows and knees.
