Klinion® Kliniderm® Hydrocolloid Border Dressings
Klinion® Kliniderm® Hydrocolloid Border is a hydroactive, self-adhesive dressing consisting of polyurethane foam coated with hydrocolloid. It is suitable for use in combination with compression therapy.
The dressing is flexible and conformable, impermeable to water and bacteria, and does not adhere to the wound bed. This reduces pain during dressing changes and prevents trauma to newly formed tissue.
Not made with natural rubber latex or DEHP.
