Description

The Silicone Foam Border dressing may be used as part of a prophylactic therapy for skin pressure ulceration/skin damage.

The hydrophilic foam has a flexible breathable backing film which ensures that moisture can be transpired through the top of the dressing and works in combination with the unique ability of the foam to absorb high levels of exudate.

The hydrophilic foam rapidly absorbs exudate whilst maintaining a moist wound environment.

The wound contact side of the dressing has a clear silicone perforated film, which protects the wound bed from adhering to the dressing by preventing the formation of granulation tissue into the pores of the foam.

The perforations in the wound contact layer allow the uptake of exudate and prevent excess fluid from causing maceration to healthy skin.
