Allevyn Adhesive Dressing 17cmx17cm - Allevyn Adhesive Dressing is the worlds no. 1 foam dressing with enhanced performance. Allevyn handles up to three times more fluid through increased breathability and absorption. This optimises the moist wound environment leading the promotion of faster healing wounds.How it worksOnly Allevyn dressings benefit from triple action Allevyn technology to provide peace of mind through the active fluid management system. This system encourages a moist healing environment for faster wound closure and a bacterial barrier through the Allevyn top film. Allevyn is a hydrocellular wound dressing designed specifically for the management of exuding wounds.The way Allevyn works is why it works. Allevyn dressings are comprised of an advanced triple-layered construction, which facilitates healing through optimal fluid management.Transpires enough fluid to keep the dressing comfortable and conformable. Retains enough fluid to keep a healthily moist wound environment. Absorbs enough fluid to remove unwanted exudate and cellular debris.BenefitsConvenient adhesive presentationThe wound contact layer of Allevyn Sacrum is coated with a low allergy adhesive which is designed to adhere well to intact skin, but not to wounds. The adhesive has a low risk of skin irritation.Highly AbsorbentIn-vitro studies and clinical experience both demonstrate that as healing progresses Allevyn Sacrum dressings can stay in place for up to five days. This capacity results from a combination of propertiesThe perforated wound contact layer allows even viscous exudate to pass into the dressing. The hydrocellular core of the dressing absorbs and holds liquid in its microscopic structure. The breathable outer surface of the dressing allows excess moisture to evaporate away from the dressing.The result is the formation of a wound environment, which allows healing to progress without the need for frequent dressing changes.Promotes early healingAllevyn Sacrum allows the formation and maintenance of a moist wound healing environment at the wound surface, preventing eschar formation and promoting rapid and trouble-free healing.Profiled dressing edgesAllevyn Sacrum has a profiled cross-section, narrowing to micro-thin edges which ensure the dressing remains securely in place and reduces the risk of accidental removal by shear between the dressing and clothes or bedding.Anatomically shapedThe unique anatomical design is able to conform to the sacral area moulding into the anal cleft, providing secure management of pressure ulcers and reduced risk of leakage.Bacteriaproof/WaterproofThe outer polyurethane layer of Allevyn Adhesive prevents strike-through of excess exudate from the dressing, and minimises the chances of cross-contamination and wound infection, therefore enhancing patient comfort and reducing healthcare costs. It also allows the amount of fluid in the dressing to be monitored.Cushioned ComfortAllevyn Sacrum dressings are soft and cushioning, giving excellent patient comfort and protection. |
