## Description

**CUTIPLAST STERIL** by Smith & Nephew is expertly crafted for effective primary wound management. This sterile dressing features a non-woven polyester fabric backing, ensuring flexibility and comfort across various body contours. Its design includes a low-adherent, highly absorbent wound pad, making it ideal for minimizing disturbance during dressing changes.

### Key Features

- **Breathability:** The dressing is air and moisture vapor permeable, promoting a healthy wound environment.

- **Hypoallergenic Adhesive:** The porous acrylic adhesive is gentle on the skin, leaving no residue and suitable for sensitive areas.

- **Conformability:** Stretchable to adhere securely even on joints and highly contoured body parts.

### Benefits

The dressing's wound contact layer is engineered to reduce adherence, thereby minimizing patient trauma during removal. This makes it particularly suitable for post-operative wounds, cuts, lacerations, sutured wounds, and abrasions. It provides a protective barrier with a cushioning effect, enhancing comfort and protection.
