General Dressings
The Optifoam® Gentle EX Bordered Foam Dressing in a 7" x 7" size is a highly effective wound care solution for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. This advanced dressing offers superior absorption, gentle adhesion, and a protective barrier to promote a balanced wound healing environment, while maintaining patient comfort throughout the healing process.
Key Features:
- Multi-layered Construction: The dressing features a multi-layered design consisting of a highly absorbent foam core, a breathable outer film, and a soft silicone adhesive border. These layers work together to effectively manage exudate, promote healing, and provide protection.
- Gentle Silicone Adhesive Border: The silicone adhesive ensures secure placement on the wound without causing trauma to the surrounding skin upon removal. Its gentle nature is particularly beneficial for patients with fragile or sensitive skin, reducing pain and discomfort.
- Superior Absorption: Capable of absorbing and retaining moderate to heavy levels of wound exudate, the foam core helps to maintain a moist wound environment conducive to healing, while preventing maceration.
- Breathable & Waterproof Barrier: The waterproof outer film protects the wound from external contaminants such as bacteria and fluids while allowing vapor exchange, keeping the skin healthy and dry.
- Flexible & Conforming: The large 7" x 7" dressing is designed to easily conform to the body’s contours, making it ideal for covering larger wounds or those in areas with irregular shapes, providing complete coverage and promoting undisturbed healing.
Benefits:
- Painless Removal: The gentle silicone border adheres securely yet removes easily, minimizing trauma to the wound and surrounding skin during dressing changes. This feature makes it ideal for long-term use and sensitive areas.
- Extended Wear Time: The dressing’s high absorption capacity allows for longer wear time, reducing the need for frequent changes and lowering the risk of wound disruption.
- Enhanced Protection: The waterproof barrier helps to shield the wound from infection while offering additional security in moist environments, whether in clinical or home care settings.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for various wound types, this large dressing is perfect for covering bigger wounds or multiple smaller wounds, and is easy to apply on areas prone to movement, ensuring the dressing stays in place.
