Abstract
An absorbent dressing which does not stick to the wound to thereby minimize secondary lesions which are caused by shearing stresses and the like. The dressing includes an absorbent pad and a thin support film with an adhesive layer therein to maintain the dressing in place on a patient. A backer sheet supports the film and a release liner covers the adhesive layer. The support film is, preferrably, transparent or translucent which permits visual inspection of the pad.
