Waterproof bandage changes color if liquids intrude
DrySee’s waterproof bandages provide
a secure, waterproof covering for low exudate wounds. If water or other
liquids make their way into the bandage, the liquid-indicating gauze along its perimeter will turn a dark blue color. Fluid from the wound site will cause
the internal pad to also change color, alerting the user that a bandage change is necessary. The bandages can last for up to three days, so people can reduce the number of bandage changes. DrySee
