ConvaTec DuoDERM Extra Thin CGF Dressing (4 x 4 Inches) - 10 Pcs Box Ref # 187955 is mainly helpful for the protection and management of superficial dermal ulcers. DuoDERM Extra Thin dressings from ConvaTec are highly flexible, control gel formula dressings designed for use on dry to lightly exudating wounds. DuoDERM Extra Thin dressings are particularly suitable in areas subject to friction and those requiring contouring, e.g., elbows, heels.

They help isolate the wound against bacterial and other external contamination. DuoDERM® CGF™ Dressing is an adherent dressing indicated for the management of exuding wounds.
