Frequently asked questions
Is this dressing effective for heavy exudate?
Yes. This dressing features Active Fluid Management (AFM) Technology. Its three-part construction uses a specialized micro-knit process to pull and trap excess fluid, significantly reducing the risk of strikethrough and protecting the surrounding healthy skin.
Does this support a moist environment for healing?
Absolutely. The dressing is specifically designed to manage moisture balance. While it effectively pulls excess exudate away from the wound bed, it simultaneously maintains the optimal level of moisture necessary to support natural healing processes.
Can this be worn under compression wraps?
Yes, this dressing is highly versatile. It is specifically designed to be used safely under secondary compression wraps or bandages without compromising its performance or causing damage to the wound site.
Does the nonadhesive design make it easier to change?
The nonadhesive nature of the dressing is ideal for patients with sensitive skin or those who require frequent dressing changes. Because it does not stick to the wound bed, it allows for gentle removal, minimizing trauma to the healing tissue.
How long can I typically leave this dressing on?
The ULTRA Foam Dressing is engineered for extended wear time. Due to its superior absorption capacity, it can remain in place for longer periods compared to standard dressings, which helps reduce the frequency of changeovers and promotes a more stable healing environment.
Is this product suitable for clinical use?
Yes, this is a professional-grade medical dressing supplied in sterile packaging. It is fully intended for use in: <ul><li>Hospitals</li><li>Clinical wound care environments</li><li>Home care settings</li></ul>
Does the backing provide extra protection?
Yes, the dressing includes a protective film backing. This layer acts as a reliable barrier, keeping the wound site clean and shielded from external contaminants while the foam layers manage fluid underneath.
How do I know which side faces the wound?
Orientation is straightforward. The side of the dressing that should face away from the wound is clearly marked with a printed pattern of green hearts and brand-specific text. Simply ensure this printed side is facing outward during application.
Is the material gentle on periwound skin?
The dressing is formulated to protect the periwound area. By effectively trapping fluid and preventing strikethrough, the dressing minimizes the risk of skin maceration, ensuring the surrounding healthy skin remains dry and intact.
What is included in a single package?
Each unit ordered includes 10 individual ULTRA Foam Dressings. Each dressing is 4 x 5 inches, sterile, and ready for use.
