I have used this on on open wounds not only to promote healing, but using this seems to minimize any scar afterward.
I prefer it on wounds instead of a bandaid because it can stay on longer and does not come off in the shower.
I love the fact that it is SO thin!

Cons:

Best Uses:
pressure sores.
Describe Yourself:
24/7 caregiver.
Used on pressure sores that would not readily
heal. Other dressings were thicker and irritated
the skin around the dressings. The thinner edge
of the ultra-thin is less irritating to surrounding tissue, but still thick enough to protect the tissue under it. It can stay on more than one day, which is also helpful in allowing the underlying tissue to heal.

DuoDerm Extra Thin worked great at healing a Stage 1 pressure sore on my friend's hip. Since the sore has healed, we continue to use it since it provides protection against friction injuries (pants pulling, small wrinkles, sliding on/off toilet). It is expensive, however, the same dressing may be used for several days and its cost is worth not having to deal with the pain, expense and inconvenience of a pressure sore.

You can use it in several ways. If the skin is starting to look broken down you can use to it try and prevent a bedsore. If she already has bedsores, the duoderm is great for over the wound. You should clean the area with normal saline and use whatever ointment or treatment your doctor has prescribed. The duoderm seals the area and protects the skin to allow it to heal. It can be kept on for up to five days which allows the skin underneath to heal.

We apply before skin breaks and use until it clears. If there is potential for continued pressure we use Aquacel over sore and under DD. Change ea 5-7 days.

At the first sign of a bed sore also be very alert to a sore because they can grow very big very fast.

No, don't use it in a bedsore. The DuoDerm is for small wound. For bedsore use Lantiseptic Skin Protectant. Apply a lot "thick paste" on it.

You prep the wound by using saline with a gauze to cleanse it. You can then apply the duraderm directly or over a specific cream ect you use.
