- Primarily used in wound care management to cover and protect large wounds that produce significant drainage
Uses
- Post-operative care:
- Ideal for use over surgical incisions
- Trauma wounds:
- Used for dressing trauma sites to manage bleeding and exudate
- Chronic wound management:
- Suitable for pressure ulcers and other chronic drainage sites where high absorbency is needed
- Various settings:
- Commonly found in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and home care environments
Features
- Size:
- The pad measures 8" x 7.5"
- Absorbency:
- It features a multi-layer design with a soft, non-woven outer facing and a cellulose inner core that rapidly wicks in, absorbs, and disperses fluid
- Protective Barrier:
- A moisture-resistant barrier on the back helps prevent "strike-through" (fluid leaking through the back of the pad) to maintain a dry environment
- Safety & Integrity:
- All edges are sealed to prevent linting and reduce the risk of contamination. The product is not made with natural rubber latex, reducing the risk of allergic reactions
- Non-Sterile:
- It is provided in a non-sterile format, suitable for use in controlled environments or as a secondary dressing
Benefits
- Effective drainage management:
- The high absorbency and wicking capabilities ensure efficient fluid retention, which helps maintain a clean, dry healing environment
- Reduced frequency of changes:
- The superior fluid capacity minimizes the need for frequent dressing changes, improving clinical efficiency and potentially reducing costs
- Enhanced patient comfort:
- The soft non-woven outer layer is gentle on sensitive skin and helps minimize irritation
- Reduced contamination risk:
- The sealed edges and moisture barrier help prevent external contaminants from entering the wound site and stop exudate from leaking out
- Versatility:
- The non-sterile packaging and large size offer flexibility for use in various applications and settings.
