Espuma Adhesive Foam Dressings

Features

✚ High absorption capacity, increasing wearing time.
✚ Contains exudate locking technology, reducing the risk of leakage and can be used under compression.
✚ Exudates are easily distributed throughout the wound dressing, meaning no skin maceration.
✚ No strike-through, meaning no fear of garments and bedding being stained, and reduces the risk of cross infection.
✚ Waterproof and bacteria-proof outermost layer.
✚ Highly breathable dressing allows gaseous changes, which is ideal for wound healing.
✚ Non-adherent gel forming wound dressing allows easy removal of the dressing without pain.

Indications

Used for the following types of wounds and ulcers, with moderate to heavy drainage / exudation rate:
✚ Pressure ulcers stage II and superficial stage III
✚ Partial and full-thickness diabetic foot ulcers
✚ Venous insufficiency leg ulcers
✚ Partial and full-thickness arterial ulcers
✚ Partial thickness burns and abrasions
✚ Open surgical wounds
✚ Skin tears

Contraindications

✚ Should not be applied onto dry wounds or necrotic tissue
✚ Should not be used in wounds that extend to reach bones or muscles
✚ Should not be used with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide solutions, as this can break down the absorbent hydro-cellular component of the dressing.
