3M™ Adaptic™ Touch Non-Adhering Silicone Dressing is a non-adherent, flexible, open-mesh silicone primary wound contact layer.
• Smaller pore size reduces risk of secondary dressing adherence to wound bed through pores
• Allows exudate to pass freely through to the secondary dressing
• Helps reduce the chance of maceration
• Atraumatic removal
• Conformability
3M™ Adaptic™ Touch Non-Adhering Silicone Dressing is indicated for use in the management of: dry to heavily exuding, partial- and full-thickness chronic wounds including venous ulcers, pressure injuries and diabetic ulcers; traumatic and surgical wounds; donor sites; first- and second-degree burns. Also suitable for use, under medical supervision, with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT).
3M™ Adaptic™ Touch Non-Adhering Silicone Dressing is not indicated for:
• Patients with a known sensitivity to silicone or cellulose acetate fabric.
• Surgical implantation.
To prevent potential adherence of silicone to gloves, gloves may be moistened with a sterile solution to facilitate handling.
The wound should be inspected for signs of infection according to clinical practice.
Layering can inhibit flow of exudate.
Store below 86°F (30°C).
