PRODUCT ADVANTAGE
Gentle Adhesion & Painless Removal: The soft silicone adhesive layer bonds securely to intact peri-wound skin but does not adhere to the moist wound bed itself. This minimizes trauma and pain during dressing changes, protecting fragile skin and new tissue growth.
Superior Exudate Management: The absorbent polyurethane foam core effectively handles moderate to high levels of wound fluid (exudate), locking it away from the wound bed and surrounding skin. This helps maintain an optimal moist wound healing environment and prevents maceration (skin breakdown from excess moisture).
Protection Against Scarring: The silicone gel layer in contact with the wound has been shown to help reduce and prevent the formation of hypertrophic scars and keloids. Silicone helps hydrate and regulate collagen production in the healing tissue.
Moist Wound Healing Environment: Creates and maintains a warm, moist microenvironment at the wound surface, which is scientifically proven to accelerate the healing process (e.g., epithelialization, granulation tissue formation) compared to dry healing.
Protective Cushioning: The foam layer provides a soft, protective pad over the wound, shielding it from friction, shear forces, pressure, and external contaminants.
Reduces Pain: By not adhering to the wound bed, protecting the wound, and maintaining a moist environment, these dressings significantly reduce pain associated with the wound and dressing changes.
Prevents Peri-Wound Skin Damage: The gentle silicone adhesive is designed to be safe for fragile skin, reducing the risk of medical adhesive-related skin injury (MARSI) upon removal. The absorption of exudate also protects the surrounding skin from maceration.
Conformability & Comfort: The flexible foam structure allows the dressing to conform well to various body contours (e.g., joints, heels, sacrum), ensuring patient comfort and effective coverage.
Optimal Gas Exchange: Allows oxygen and water vapor to pass through while preventing bacterial ingress (when intact), promoting a healthy healing environment.
Extended Wear Time: Due to their high absorbency and ability to lock away exudate, silicone gel foam dressings often have a longer wear time (several days) than many other dressing types, reducing the frequency of changes and associated costs/labor.
APPLIED FOR
Wound Care Clinics & Centers:
Specialized units focused on managing complex, chronic, or non-healing wounds (e.g., venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries).
Burn Units:
For partial-thickness burns (after the acute phase) and donor sites, leveraging their gentle adhesion, scar management properties, and ability to handle exudate.
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery:
Post-operative wound care (e.g., after skin grafts, flap surgery, scar revisions, cosmetic procedures) due to atraumatic removal, scar prevention, and protection.
General Surgery:
Management of closed surgical incisions (especially those at risk of hypertrophic scarring) and draining post-surgical wounds.
Dermatology:
Treatment of skin tears, blistering disorders, ulcers, and other dermatological wounds requiring gentle care and scar modulation.
Orthopedics:
Wounds over joints or mobile areas (e.g., knees, elbows, heels), post-operative orthopedic incisions, and traumatic wounds where conformability and cushioning are critical.
Vascular Surgery:
Management of venous leg ulcers, arterial ulcers (in conjunction with vascular management), and post-vascular procedure sites.
Oncology:
Care for radiation-induced skin reactions (dermatitis), fragile skin in cancer patients, and post-oncologic surgical wounds.
Podiatry:
Diabetic foot ulcers, neuropathic ulcers, post-debridement wounds, and wounds on the foot requiring protection from pressure/shear.
Geriatrics/Long-Term Care:
Management of pressure injuries (pressure ulcers), skin tears, and other wounds in elderly patients with fragile skin.
Pediatrics:
Gentle wound care for children, especially where pain-free dressing changes and scar prevention are priorities (e.g., post-surgery, burns, lacerations).
Home Care/Community Nursing:
Management of chronic wounds in outpatient settings, valued for extended wear time, ease of use, and patient comfort.
