Contact Layer
As defined by Medicare, Contact Layers are thin,
non-adherent sheets placed directly on an open wound bed to
protect the wound tissue from direct contact with other agents or
dressings applied to the wound. They are porous to allow wound
fluid to pass through for absorption by an overlying dressing.
