Dressings for Pressure Ulcers
Designed to protect wounds. They offer the therapeutic advantages of Hydrofiber technology, the comfort of a foam dressing, and the antimicrobial action of silver ions. Aquacel Foam dressings are the only choice.
Indications:
- The waterproof barrier manages the transmission of exudates absorbed by the dressing and protects the wound from external infections. It provides evaporation of excess moisture, protection from bacteria and viruses, and allows the patient to bathe or shower. The soft polyurethane layer absorbs wound exudates and reduces pressure, offering comfort to the patient.
- The peripheral adhesive made of silicone adheres to the skin beyond the wound's edges. It is skin-friendly, offers secure application, and painless removal. It has been proven to have a low potential for skin irritation and allergic reactions.
- A layer of Aquacel Hydrofiber technology, which turns into a gel upon contact with wound exudates, does the following:
- Traps the wound exudates and bacteria
- Interacts with wound exudates to create a cohesive gel, helping to minimize pain during dressing changes.
- Prevents the lateral spread of wound exudates, protecting the surrounding healthy skin from erosion.
- Self-adapts by taking the shape of the wound surface it comes into contact with, thereby minimizing gaps where bacteria can accumulate and multiply.
Now, a single dressing can offer the comfort and convenience of a foam dressing and the therapeutic benefits of an AQUACEL™ dressing. Contact us for wholesale, retail prices, and more information.
