Description

Smith & Nephew Primapore Adhesive Dressing, 10 x 20 Centimeter (200/CS)

  • Highly absorbent and low-adherent pad: The polyester wound contact layer enables the passage of blood or exudate into the highly absorbent pad while maintaining a good healing environment and minimal pain on dressing removal.
  • Safe and secure fixation: The low allergy acrylic adhesive is evenly spread onto the nonwoven backing surface providing a safe and secure dressing fixation over the wound site.
  • Soft and conformable: Ensures patient comfort and conformability to all wound sites (even the more difficult areas like shoulders and axillae)
  • Ease of use: The protector paper, which is slit across the width of the dressing, enables quick application without the risk of touching the absorbent pad or adhesive area with fingers or forceps.
  • Thick pad minimizes fluid strike-through and helps to protect the wound from trauma.
