OPSITE Post-Op

Within a hospital, many surgical procedures take place, such as hip or knee replacement. MRSA can compromise a surgical wound, leading to many problems. It is important that a dressing which covers such a wound provides a physical barrier to infection, including MRSA.

One such dressing is OPSITE* Post-Op. This is waterproof, allowing a patient to bathe and, importantly, provides a barrier to MRSA. This is beneficial to the patient, potentially shortening their time in hospital and also reducing the costs associated with dealing with the hospital acquired infection.
