The highly absorbent Advazorb Absorbent Foam Wound Dressing has a soft silicone wound contact layer, an adhesive border, and a breathable film backing. The porous silicone layer allows exudate to pass through the absorbent foam while protecting the delicate wound bed. This combination lowers the risk of maceration while ensuring the dressing stays firmly in place.

Features:

• Can be used without the need for secondary fixation on wounds that can be difficult to treat.
• Reduces discomfort and trauma when changing or removing a dressing.
• Fluids are quickly absorbed and retained by soft, conformable polyurethane foam.
• The dressing can be used under compression because the waterproof film backing stops strike-through.
• Soft foam and low-friction backing improve patient and clinician comfort and satisfaction.
• Additional fixation is not necessary when using high-quality foam and low-friction film with an adhesive border.
• Exudate can pass through the foam effectively thanks to the large open pores, which also preserve the best possible skin adhesion.
• The entire dressing surface is covered in a soft silicone contact layer that offers gentle yet secure adhesion.

Indications:

• Suitable for acute and chronic wounds such as- leg ulcers, cuts and abrasions, superficial burns, surgical wounds, pressure ulcers and diabetic ulcers.
• Low to moderate exudate applications.

Contra-indications:

• Arterial bleeds
• Heavily bleeding wounds and vascular fungating tumours.
