Euroderm incise iodine

Description

Why Choose Euroderm incise iodine?
Antimicrobial Efficacy: The adhesive contains iodine which is released slowly, eliminating bacteria on the skin and suppressing regrowth under the drape during long surgeries.
Secure Adhesion: Adheres firmly to the skin right up to the wound edge, preventing the film from lifting or moving, and blocking the “Lateral Migration” of bacteria from the surrounding skin into the open wound.
Flexibility & Breathability: Features high elasticity to stretch with body movements and retractors. It is also permeable to water vapor, preventing moisture build-up that could weaken the adhesive.
Clear Visibility: Despite its yellowish tint (due to iodine), it is transparent enough to allow clear visualization of skin landmarks and surgical markings.
