The DuoDerm Extra Thin Hydrocolloid Dressings are ideal for wounds that are dry or have minimal exudate. However, for bed sores, which typically drain heavily, this dressing is not suitable. Instead, consider a silicone foam dressing like the Mepilex Border Flex. This self-adherent soft silicone foam dressing features a 5-layer design that effectively absorbs, channels, and traps exudate, while also allowing you to track healing progress.
