Convatec DuoDerm® CGF Control Gel Formula Dressing 4" x 4" - Box of 20

🔷 Product Overview

The ConvaTec DuoDERM® CGF™ Control Gel Formula Dressing 4" x 4" (10 x 10 cm) is a self-adherent hydrocolloid dressing designed to manage wound exudate while maintaining a moist wound healing environment. Featuring ConvaTec's proven Control Gel Formula (CGF™) technology, the dressing absorbs wound fluid and forms a cohesive gel that helps support the body's natural healing process.

As the dressing interacts with wound exudate, it creates a moist environment that may assist with autolytic debridement by helping remove non-viable tissue without damaging newly formed tissue. The hydrocolloid formulation also helps contain exudate while maintaining close contact with the wound surface.

The adhesive dressing provides secure coverage and acts as a barrier against bacterial, viral, and external contamination. Suitable for a wide range of partial and full-thickness wounds with exudate, DuoDERM® CGF™ is commonly used in the management of pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, burns, donor sites, and other dermal wounds.
