Opsite Post-Op Dressing – Waterproof Post-Operative Wound Care

Key Benefits

• Bacterial barrier — protects the wound site against extrinsic contamination and reduces infection risk
• Waterproof film — patient can shower with the dressing in place
• Low-allergy adhesive with unique grid pattern to minimise the risk of allergic response
• Highly absorbent pad rapidly absorbs serous exudate with lateral spread to maximise absorbency
• Low-adherence wound contact layer allows minimal trauma on removal
• High MVTR (11,000g/m²/24hr) REACTIC™ film — significantly more permeable to water vapour than ordinary films
• Round corners and thin film reduce lifting and snagging, keeping the dressing in place longer
• Conformable, comfortable, and unobtrusive for the patient

Available Options

Sold as a single unit dressing.

Directions for Use

1. Clean and dry the wound site thoroughly before application.
2. Select the appropriate dressing size to ensure full wound coverage with adequate margin.
3. Remove the backing and apply the dressing centrally over the wound, pressing firmly around the edges.
4. The dressing may be left in place for several days — change if the absorbent pad becomes saturated or the dressing lifts.
5. To remove, lift one corner and peel back slowly in the direction of hair growth while supporting the surrounding skin.
6. Follow your healthcare professional’s instructions for post-operative wound care.
