Frequently asked questions
Can this dressing be used with compression therapy?
Yes, the Duramax S is specifically engineered to maintain its absorbent performance even under standard compression of 40 mmHg.
Will the dressing stick to the wound during changes?
No, it features a cross-linked silicone contact layer that is designed to be non-adherent. This provides a soft, non-stick surface that minimizes trauma and pain during dressing changes.
Does this dressing help prevent skin maceration?
Yes. The non-occlusive, breathable construction allows water vapor to pass through, which helps maintain a healthy moisture balance and protects the surrounding skin from maceration.
Can I reposition the dressing after application?
Yes, the dressing is equipped with a gentle silicone adhesive that allows you to carefully reposition it, making the application process easier to manage.
Is this dressing suitable for high-exudate wounds?
Absolutely. The Duramax S is specifically designed for the management of high-exudate wounds, where its superior absorption technology helps keep the wound bed clean and protected.
What is the primary benefit of the six-layer structure?
The advanced six-layer construction is engineered to actively wick away, contain, and lock in viscous exudate, ensuring the fluid remains contained within the matrix even under pressure.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, it is a non-occlusive, breathable dressing. This is intentional, as it facilitates a moist environment that is conducive to natural healing while preventing moisture build-up.
Does it protect the peri-wound skin?
Yes, the combination of the silicone contact layer and the breathable design helps ensure that the delicate skin around the wound remains protected and free from irritation.
How many dressings are included in the case?
Each case contains 160 individual units, providing a substantial supply for clinical or long-term management needs.
