Frequently asked questions
Does the foam adapt to uneven wound beds?
Yes, it utilizes 3DFit Technology. The polyurethane foam is soft and conformable, meaning it physically adapts to the contours of the wound bed upon contact to ensure a snug fit.
Can this be used under compression therapy?
Absolutely. The dressing is specifically engineered to maintain its structural integrity and effectiveness even when used under compression wraps, making it an excellent choice for venous leg ulcers.
How long can this dressing stay in place?
Depending on the volume of exudate and the condition of the wound, this dressing is designed for extended wear of up to 7 days, which helps minimize disruption to the wound bed.
Does it effectively prevent skin maceration?
Yes. The integrated microcapillary system absorbs exudate vertically and locks it away within the foam. By pulling moisture away from the wound and locking it inside, it protects the surrounding skin from maceration.
Is the outer backing waterproof?
Yes, the dressing features a waterproof backing. This provides a barrier that keeps the wound environment protected while managing fluid effectively.
What is the best way to secure it?
Because this version is non-adhesive and borderless, it requires a secondary fixation method. It works perfectly with:
- Medical tapes
- Bandages
- Compression wraps
Is the material safe for various wound types?
Yes, the high-quality polyurethane foam is indicated for a wide range of wounds, including:
- Pressure ulcers
- Non-infected diabetic foot ulcers
- Postoperative wounds
- Traumatic injuries
- Donor sites
How do I know which side faces the wound?
The dressing is printed with a distinctive yellow linear pattern on the top surface. This branding not only identifies the product but also clearly indicates that the patterned side should face outward, away from the wound bed.
Does this dressing help reduce leakage?
Yes. By using advanced 3DFit Technology to conform to the wound and microcapillaries to pull fluid vertically, the dressing significantly reduces the risk of leakage, keeping the area clean and dry.
Are these dressings provided in a sterile state?
Yes, every individual dressing is sterile and designed for high-performance clinical or home-care use, ensuring a safe application environment for sensitive wounds.
