Adhesive
bandage, also known as sticking plaster, is a wound care dressing

applied on the patients who have not undergone serious accident but
have minor abrasion (scratches) and cut on their body. The most
widely utilized term for adhesive bandage by Americans is Band-Aid or
Bandage; however, the British population terms them as plaster.
Adhesive bandage help protect the cut or abrasion from bacteria,
damage, friction and dirt and thus, results in quick healing process
of the wound. It also helps hold the skin’s two cut ends together
and hence fasten the healing process.
Adhesive
bandage is covered with plastic, woven fabric or latex strip, which
possesses the property of adhesion. A medicated absorbent pad with
antiseptic solution is also present in an adhesive bandage. Some
adhesive bandages contain thin and porous polymer coating on the
medicated adsorbent pad that helps in sticking them to the wound.
These adhesive bandages are applied in such as way that medicated
adsorbent pad covers the wound (cut or abrasion), and the fabric of
the bandage sticks to the nearby skin, to restrict the entry of germs
and dirt into the wound.
Adhesive
bandages can be segmented as: special bandages, transdermal patches
and butterfly stitches. Special bandages are utilized by the people
who are engaged in food prep work. They are blue colored waterproof
bandages with strong adhesive property that resist their fall in food

bandages that help deliver medication through the skin and not
protecting wound. Butterfly stitches are thin adhesive strips that
are applied to close small wounds.
