OPSITESNTM Visible Drain Dressing

Bacteria proof, Waterproof film and See-through Absorbent pad


OPSITE◊ Visible Drain Dressing provides an innovative solution for effectively managing drain sites with the added benefit of being able to monitor the site without lifting the dressing or disturbing the drain.

Secure and Comfortable
The pre-cut slit and securing strips help secure the drain in place. The dressing design ensures it is comfortable to wear and the pattern spread low allergy adhesive3 helps to minimise pain on removal4.

 

Vital Protection against serious consequences
The film is impermeable to bacteria5 and whilst the dressing remains intact protects the drain site from outside contamination. 

Continual monitoring
Unique design allows you to monitor the drain site for signs of any complications as often as you like without unnecessary dressing changes for your patients.
