MED PRIDE Embroidered Gauze Island Bandage 2'' X 3.15''| 50 Individually Packaged Bags, Adhesive Bandage, Breathable, Sterile & Highly Absorbent, Latex Free & Rubber Free Edges

These are as good as the Island surgical bandages my surgeon used. They provide great coverage, protect the wound while allowing air to circulate to aid in healing. There are 50 individual bandages in the box of 2" X 3 3/4 size bandages. The size is just right for a MOHs skin cancer surgery on my shin. They are so much nicer than OTC bandages, which were not quite large enough to cover a small surgical wound and either did not stick well or were painful to remove. Removing them is nearly painless, yet they stick well around the wound. So happy I found these on Amazon. They were delivered by Amazon quickly and arrived in pristine condition.

Muy útiles. Me hice retiro de placa y clavos en tibia y compré estos parches para mi recuperación y me han servido mucho! Si los compras en hospital o farmacias te salen muy caros, aquí por Amazon están a muy buen precio.

Excellent product. I have tired different brands and this is the best. Great adhesion and I woudl highly recommend.

These dressings are great. Just keep in mind that the pad that comes in contact with the wound is not 2x3. The entire dressing with the adhesive is 2x3 but they are still very convenient if that's what you need

I'm pretty impressed with these bandages. Let me explain why: My husband has probably had at least 10 MOHs surgeries with varying degrees of depth and area and some different "closures." Some of them have been in "easy" places like the top of his head or his nose (not pretty, but pretty easy for wound care purposes - usually sutured). Some are in hard-to-reach places like in the crease behind the ear, requiring some creativity for prolonged wound care. If you don't know about this, it can take up to 10 weeks or more for a cauterized wound to heal, requiring daily dressing changes. Like many wounds, these come with a prescribed treatment protocol. First, is a non-adherent pad. Second is a good seal around the pad to prevent infection and to ensure that the dressing ointment (sterile petroleum jelly) stays in place. Typically, the surgical team will pack these wounds with non-adherent pads, maybe some gauze cushioning, and incredible amounts of Medipore tape. Some years ago, one of the practitioners introduced us to these "island" dressings, which can ultimately replace the pads, gauze, and tape. So, when caring for my husband's wounds, these have been a go-to after about a week of care to ensure all bleeding has stopped. They have a couple of advantages, the primary being that the sticky part is essentially like Medipore and does not damage or irritate skin. Important for anyone on blood thinners, with latex allergies, or any other sensitivities. The bandages are more comfortable than all the tape tape layers needed be applied and they hold well, even on short hair. In the case of this particular style product, I was looking for something longer that could be folded to fit the crease behind my husband's ear. This fit the bill, being rectangular in shape. I make several small slit cuts into the tape area to help with "sculpting" the bandage around the curve of the ear and they work perfectly and stand up to a night's sleep, wearing glasses, and other daily "stuff" that could affect adhesion and comfort. He finds it much more comfortable than the tape and pad approach. It's less obtrusive, as well, and removes easily. I use island dressing for all his significant wounds for these reasons and would recommend nothing else. What amazes me is that we have encountered quite a few medical professionals (ER, wound care nurses, derm nurses, and docs) who don't even know that such a thing exists and they wish their clinics stocked them. I wish that same thing.
