Rescue Essentials - 3M Tegaderm Transparent Film Dressing - 4" x 4 3/4" - 10 Count (Pack of 1), White, Green

Good number of transparent dressings, easy to use for wound care. Good to have on hand in the first aid box, as they seal the skin from dirt and bacteria. These also ‘trick’ the skin into healing up from the wound bed without serial scabbing and deepening the crater. They can be left in place for up to 7 days. If it is pooling liquid in it, I used a piece of Telfa cut to fit over the open part first, and then used the clear dressing over it, which though it had to be changed more often, was easier on my skin than the paper tape for holding the dressing in place. Get a good wound care book for reference if you aren’t familiar with it. See your doctor for help if it doesn’t look better in a couple of days, has pus or hard black material (eschar), or smell odd or bad. People who have blood conditions or diabetics should be really careful self treating.

I just had surgery on my shoulder and have used this brand 3M Tegaderm Film before. So when I ordered this product in a larger size there was no doubt in my mind that it would work! I’ve used this product in the Field, and obviously for my personal preference. I consider this the gold standard for bandages.The film is a bit tricky to apply but if you follow the instructions you should definitely get the hang of it by the second time around. And I would also say, by the time you apply it 3 or 4 times you will be a pro. Lol, it’s really not rocket science. This sealing bandage comes in different sizes and is clear in color. It will not harm sensitive skin and most importantly it will protect your wound. The Tegaderm is water resistant and locks out germs while the wound is healing. I used it, and changed it, every other day after my stitches were dissolved and the surgical tape removed. It’s also great for creating a barrier against the annoying fabric seams or lady’s bra straps that rub against your freshly cut skin.I was a little surprised that it didn’t come in a box but there had been no tampering with the product itself and all seals were intact. The delivery was good with no incident to report and as a person who worked in the medical field, I give this my stamp of approval!

These are the perfect size for what I needed to use them for. Fit was perfect. It's only been one day so I can't say about longevity for this patch but so far so good. They came in a sealed plastic bag not a box so it's easier to store.

Everyone with a kid or someone in the family prone to crashing their mountain bike (that would be me) should have this in the cupboard at all times.I was a little skeptical at first as it was SUPER sticky but I was transitioning from DynaDerm to Tegaderm as my gravel rash got a little more healed up and stopped weeping. I kept it on for 3 days and had the darndest time trying to get it off to change the dressing. It was on their TIGHT! It was stuck down so hard that I was certain that it would pull off the scab and healing skin... I was wrong. It was hard to peel off good skin, but it came off the wound without a problem.It stays on better than the Nexc@re brand. I had some 2x2s of those for my hand. I would definitely get the smaller ones of this brand next time.The pictures are before and after the first time I used it. The photo with the dressing on is after I had changed the dressing and put the new one on.

Exactly like the ones they use in the hospitals! These have come in handy for covering an open incision for my husband. Absolutely recommend!

I ordered these to go over my pain patches my Dr. Ordered so I can shower without.gettimg it soaking wet.on my upper arms. It mostly sticks but the edges get somewhat not sticky. My husband uses chloraprep to remove them weekly. For the most part they hold up. When using these types of patches for my pich line last year they left my arms all scarred up. I used same brand but they had a slight different shape.Everywhere I place this over pain patch (for pain patch u have to rotate weekly) it removes all hair in that area. If not removed with chloraprep or potent alcohol wipes it is extremely painful. To remove these in my opinion from my experience use chloraprep, it works the best if u can handle the smell.Also if having issues with this product or something else adhering a little better I know it sounds crazy but use a couple of puffs of Flonase it.has a steroid and will help it stick.DO NOT USE FLONASE ON OR NEAR AN OPEN OR PARTIALLY EXPISED WOUND. IT WAS TOLD TO ME THE STEROID IN IT HELPS STICK BETTER. IDK IF Y LET IT DRY FIRST OR NOT. I LET IT HALF DRY. IT HELD UP FOR THE WEEK FOR THE PATCH,idk if it's safe to swim with this over an IV, pich, or pain patch.

I just had some stitches put in my leg and was sent away with some very inadequate bandages, so I stopped in a drugstore on the way home and bought some gauze squares and this film. What a difference!

These are perfect for wounds that haven’t closed yet. When I scraped my knee on asphalt, my doctor recommended I used these so that the skin didn’t dry as wounds can get very itchy when try dry while healing. A wonderful product.
