Duramax S Silicone Super Absorbent Dressing is specifically designed for managing malodorous wounds with moderate to heavy exudate. It is suitable for a variety of wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, arterial ulcers, first-degree and second-degree burns, post-operative wounds, and traumatic wounds. The dressing combines advanced fluid management with a gentle silicone contact layer to enhance patient comfort and wound healing. A unique 6-layer structure absorbs and locks in viscous exudate, even under pressure, and features a top film layer to allow water vapor to permeate.
Features:
- Silicone Contact Layer:
- Comfortable: Enhances patient comfort by reducing the risk of pain and damage to the wound bed upon removal.
- Gentle and Non-Adherent: The silicone layer draws fluid upwards while remaining non-adherent to the wound site, minimizing trauma during dressing changes.
- Distribution Layer:
- Efficient Fluid Management: Ensures that fluid is effectively managed, maintaining an optimal moist wound environment.
- Rapid Fluid Uptake: Quickly absorbs exudate and distributes it evenly into the absorbent layer, preventing pooling and maceration.
- Central Absorbent Core:
- SAP Polymer: Contains a super absorbent polymer (SAP) core that provides exceptional absorption and retention capabilities.
- Under Compression: Capable of absorbing and retaining fluid even under standard compression, making it ideal for use in compression therapy.
- Fluid-Repellent Backing Layer:
- Minimizes Strikethrough: Prevents fluid from leaking through the dressing, keeping the surrounding skin dry.
- Vapor-Permeable: Enhances breathability and helps manage exudate by allowing moisture vapor to escape, reducing the risk of maceration.
Indications for Use:
- Diabetic Foot Ulcers
- Venous Leg Ulcers
- Arterial Ulcers
- First-Degree and Second-Degree Burns
- Post-Operative Wounds
- Traumatic Wounds
