The non- A primary dressing made of knitted cellulose acetate fabric and impregnated with a special petrolatum emulsion is known as adhering dressing. It shields the wound from infection and keeps the dressing from sticking to it. I've been using it for several years because I'm 84 and have particularly thin skin. When I have a skin tear, I make sure the skin is in place before applying Adaptic, nonstick gauze, and paper tape. It's easy to remove and allows blood to flow freely to the gauze. My doctor had used this on a leg wound and had given me a couple of packs, so I bought the entire box of 50. They can be trimmed to fit the size of the wound. It facilitates and neatens up the healing process. There aren't any unpleasant odors here.
On the packaging, there isn't much to go on. It depicts a letter U. address, but this isn't very useful information. It's a great product with a long shelf life. life.

It works great and leaves no scar. I followed the instructions in the guides I found on the internet; combined with antibiotic gel and wrapped in gauze for the first two days (until no more oozing), then wrapped in no - affix a self-clinging medical wrap to your body. The Adaptic helped me heal a bad skin tear caused by a friction wound quickly, cleanly, and without leaving a scar. br>br>This product keeps the wound moist and protects it while it heals, reducing the risk of the wound dressing sticking to the healing wound. On its own, it doesn't stick very well. Using an antibacterial gel will help provide enough cling for you to wrap it with gauze and then a no stick, self-clinging medical wrap. br>br>In the future, if a bandaid doesn't stick well to a wound, I'll use this combination. (My wound was at the base of my pinky finger; using this with gauze and a wound wrap kept the dressing in place for a full day, whereas a bandaid would need to be changed every few hours. ) br>br>I made a bandage out of gauze from my first-aid kit.

The hospital had given me this same "gauze" for my burn, but only enough for a few days, because I have a fairly significant 2nd degree burn on my wrist/forearm that requires bandage changes every 12 hours. When I ran out, I figured I could just pick up any "nonstick" gauze at the store. I was completely incorrect, and the other gauze made bandage changes a dreadful experience filled with excruciating pain! It didn't matter how much cream I put under the gauze--it didn't make a difference. The rest of us are still trapped! So, in a panic, I looked on Amazon and came across these! They were quick to arrive and have saved my life! I would highly recommend these to anyone dealing with a complete second-degree burn or any wound where the bandage is required to not adhere! It's also a fantastic value (trust me, I shopped around and did my homework)!.
This was purchased in advance of foot surgery. The Adaptic fabric is a petroleum jelly-impregnated thin mesh fabric square. It should be applied to the skin as a buffer between the stitches or wound and the gauze bandage layer in order to prevent the bandage from sticking. The item is in excellent condition. Any home first-aid kit should include a box of Adaptic, in my opinion.
I couldn't find them in any local drugstores (chain or specialty/compounding), so I ordered them from Amazon and received them the next day. These bandages kept the area moist while the blistered skin healed by covering it with a thin layer of neosporin, and they worked great. I had to cover them with gauze and secure them to my shoulder with paper tape, and I had to change the dressing three times a day.
My arm was badly swollen and had a deep wound. These were by far the worst of three different petrolatum emulsion dressings that I tried. Because they were thin and dry, they stuck to the wound. The other two brands were thicker and had soaked up all of the non-alcoholic beverage. They didn't stick because of the stick jelly, which aided recovery greatly. These are a waste of money that you won't be able to return.

Sutures were kept clean and in place thanks to your help. It doesn't stick to the wound, but it has enough adherence to keep it from sliding around, making it a useful item for wound care and first aid kits.
This is precisely what the hospital did to her. They do not adhere to the wound in any way.
