Klinion Kliniderm Hydrocolloid Thin Dressings
A sterile, hydro-active, self-adhesive dressing with a thin profile, designed for low-exuding superficial wounds.
Klinion Kliniderm® Hydrocolloid Thin combines a semi-permeable polyurethane film with a hydrocolloid matrix, forming a flexible, conformable dressing that supports a moist wound environment and protects against outside contaminants. The dressing is impermeable to water and bacteria, yet breathable to vapour, and is designed not to adhere to the wound surface, helping reduce pain on dressing removal and preventing damage to newly formed tissue.
Not made with natural rubber latex or DEHP.

Contraindications

Applying Klinion Kliniderm Hydrocolloid Thin Dressings
1. Cleanse the wound following local protocols and ensure peri-wound skin is dry.³
2. Select a dressing size so the dressing overlaps the wound margins by 2–3 cm.¹
3. Remove the protective liner(s), apply the adhesive side onto the wound surface, and smooth out edges to ensure full contact and avoid wrinkles.³
4. Press gently around the edges to secure adhesion.³
Dressing Change and Removal
1. The dressing may remain in place up to 7 days, depending on exudate and wound status.¹
2. Change earlier if gel formation extends beyond the wound, exudate saturation is evident, or signs of infection appear.²
3. To remove, gently peel back from one edge while supporting surrounding skin. If the dressing is adherent, moisten the edges with sterile saline to ease removal.³
4. Dispose of used dressings per local clinical waste guidelines.³
