Product Description
ALLEVYN Hydrocellular Foam Dressing. Features: Unique trilaminate structure, Non adherent wound contact layer, Highly absorbent central hydrocellular layer, Waterproof outer film layer, Non adhesive, Full range of sizes. Benefits: Highly absorbent, In-vitro studies and clinical experience both demonstrate that ALLEVYN non-adherent dressings can stay in place for up to seven days. This capacity results from a combination of properties: The perforated wound contact layer allows even viscous exudate to pass into the dressing. The hydrocellular core of the dressing absorbs and retains liquid in its microscopic structure. The breathable outer surface of the dressing allows excess moisture to evaporate away from the dressing. The result is the creation of a wound environment, which allows healing to progress. Non-adherent ALLEVYN dressings have a polyurethane wound contact layer which prevents adherence to a full range of wound types. Helps create and maintain a moist wound environment. The outer, pink layer used on ALLEVYN dressings is a breathable film layer. This allows the formation and maintenance of a moist wound environment at the wound surface, which helps prevent eschar formation. The pink film is also waterproof and aid in the prevention of bacterial contamination. Non-adhesive. ALLEVYN dressings are non-adhesive and are therefore recommended for wounds surrounded by sensitive skin, such as venous ulcers. The lack of adhesive allows the use of the most suitable retention method, for example, tape onto intact skin, appropriate bandaging or a film dressing such as OPSITE. Easy to use. ALLEVYN dressings are conformable and can be cut to suit various wound shapes and locations. As ALLEVYN dressings absorb exudate, they may swell slightly, but do not leave debris in the wound. Dressing changes are therefore easier for the nurse and less traumatic for the patient; wound irrigation can be kept to a minimum. The progression of exudate through the dressing is visible through the pink top film. Soft and cushioning. ALLEVYN dressings are soft and cushioning, providing excellent patient comfort.
