This 4\" x 5-1\/2\" sterile film dressing features REACTIC moisture-responsive technology that adapts to moisture levels at the site. When moisture builds up, the film's moisture vapor transmission rate increases to allow excess moisture to escape as vapor, helping to keep the skin drier and reducing the environment where bacteria can flourish .
