Benefits
- Reduced Pain and Trauma:
- The gentle silicone adhesive border minimizes pain and trauma to the wound and periwound skin during dressing changes
- Optimal Healing Environment:
- Promotes a moist wound healing environment, which is crucial for faster recovery and helps prevent the buildup of maceration of healthy skin
- Effective Exudate Management:
- The superior absorbency of the foam pad and super-absorbent layer effectively wicks and locks in fluid, minimizing the risk of leakage
- Secure and Confident Wear:
- The secure border ensures the dressing stays in place, providing confidence in protection and reducing the frequency of changes
- Infection Control:
- The sterile nature and protective film backing enhance hygiene standards and reduce the risk of surgical site infections
