DrySee Launches Waterproof Bandage with Wetness Indicator

By Bruce Christian - July 5, 2023

DrySee, a medical technology company dedicated to improving wound care, introduces its patented waterproof bandage with liquid intrusion alert.

The average bandage provides some protection, but it is still easy for dirt and water to reach a wound. Even if a waterproof bandage is used on a wound it’s hard to tell if it is actually sealed.

DrySee is an alternative to traditional cloth or plastic bandages when more reliable wound protection and water blockage is needed.

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 the perimeter of the bandage 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.

DrySee’s color changing, liquid intrusion alert takes the guesswork out of replacing bandages because it is easy to see if the bandage is wet or dry. DrySee bandages can last for up to three days, so people may even be able to reduce the number of bandage changes that they need to complete during healing.

DrySee bandages are available in packages of 25 or four units for online purchase. DrySee liquid indicating bandages are waterproof, sterile, disposable, breathable, non-latex, and one bandage can be used for up to three days.
