UMD: Antimicrobial dressings impregnated with zinc oxide. The most common substrate used in these dressings is gauze, but other fabrics are also used. Zinc-oxide-impregnated antimicrobial dressings reduce itching and and/or kill microorganisms (e.g., bacteria); they are used mainly to treat eczema or dermatitis.
