About MED PRIDE Bordered Gauze-Island Dressing 6 x 6
Overall Feedback:
85% positive
76% praised for its excellent absorbency, but 24% found it lacked absorbency
The absorbency of the gauze was not high, but it was suitable for my graft site.
The absorbent pad is not centered.
80% praised the breathable layering, but 20% found it too thick
The first-aid-gauze is not breathable. I even tried taking off my compression socks for a few days to see if that would help, but it has not.
I am unsure if the rash was caused by the chemical in the tape or the sweat since the tape is not breathable.
I experienced skin irritation and burning around the adhesive area of the bandage, almost as bad as the wound itself. The skin still shows the mark of the bandage and I stopped using it due to this issue.
79% appreciated the easy-to-use design, but 21% found it difficult to apply
The bandages stick fairly well, but they are not waterproof. Despite this, I am satisfied with the product for the price.
The bandage is very absorbent and the adhesive actually sticks and stays stuck. I am very pleased with the product.
The adhesive sides of the gauze stretch out with use, which makes it stick better but then it is not as tight over the wounds.
After the second day of use, the adhesive tape caused redness on my skin.
81% appreciated the generous size, but 19% found it too small
The pad area is 4x4 with wide adhesive margins for better contact and staying power.
The actual size of the gauze is 2in by 1.75in.
The dressings are 4x4, not 6x6.
