ABSTRACT:
A dressing is described which is preferably constructed of a layer of hydrocolloid material having a downwardly extending lip member thereon that is sized to be received adjacent to a percutaneous device which is at least partially implanted into a patient such that the dressing having a lip member thereon forms a physical barrier to decrease the incidence of catheter tract infections in a patient and the lip member provides a downward extension into the wound to help remove exudate and detritus from the catheter tract and wherein the dressing further includes a mesh layer adjacent to the skin of the patient to minimize the amount of hydrocolloid material remaining on the skin of the patient after use.
