Smith & Nephew Opsite Flexigrid Transparent Film Dressing 2 3/8 x 2 3/4 Inch
Waterproof Transparent Film Dressing with Wound Measurement Grid for Secure Protection
Product Description
Smith & Nephew Opsite Flexigrid Transparent Film Dressing is a sterile, waterproof polyurethane film dressing designed to provide a protective barrier over superficial wounds while allowing continuous visualization of the healing site. Manufactured by Smith & Nephew, this transparent film dressing features a unique wound measurement grid that allows healthcare professionals to accurately track changes in wound size over time.
The Opsite Flexigrid Dressing is composed of a thin, clear polyurethane membrane coated with a hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive. Its moisture vapor permeable construction allows excess exudate to evaporate while maintaining a moist wound healing environment, helping to prevent skin maceration and support the healing process. The waterproof and bacteria-resistant barrier helps protect the wound from external contaminants while allowing patients to bathe without changing the dressing.
This 2 3/8 x 2 3/4 inch rectangle dressing features a two-tab delivery system that simplifies application by allowing controlled placement and reducing the risk of the film folding or sticking to itself. The unique Flexigrid carrier can be written on with a ballpoint pen after tracing wound edges, providing a record of wound size change for patient documentation. The dressing is designed to be adaptable for use on all areas of the body and can be easily cut into strips or shapes for application to awkward areas such as heels, elbows, and knees.

- Compared to other transparent films, Opsite Flexigrid features the unique Flexigrid carrier with a wound measurement grid. This allows healthcare professionals to trace wound edges and document changes in wound size over time, providing a valuable tool for tracking healing progress. The waterproof and vapor-permeable construction helps protect the wound from external contaminants while allowing the skin to breathe.
