OpSite Incise Drape Transparent Film Dressings are moisture vapor permeable dressings manufactured by Smith & Nephew. OpSite Dressings help keep the wound site dry to promote healing. Constructed with a superior film base and with acrylic adhesive, OpSite Transparent Dressings are resistant to water and body fluids, allowing the patient to bathe without changing dressings. Less frequent dressing changes reduce the trauma to the wound area as well as to the patient.
Other Opsite Incise Drape options include the 4975 Incise Drape, 4986 Incise Drape, 4988 Incise Drape and 4989 Incise Drape.
Smith & Nephew also manufactures other OpSite Dressings, including Flexifix, Post-Op, Post-Op Visible, Flexigrid, and IV3000 Dressings.
