Coloplast Inc. - Biatain Foam Dressing - Sterile 7X7" Includes Hydrocolloid Adhesive Boarder

Individual foam dressings differ significantly in their structure and performance. Almost all wound healing products have the ability to manage wound fluid. The unique 3-D Polymer structures within the BiatainT Adhesive Foam Dressing pad absorbs and locks exudate away. This means there is high exudate retention and no lateral spreading. A combination of very high absorption and retention capacities means that the BiatainT Adhesive Foam Dressing is a superior choice under compression therapy. A high retention value is indicative of minimum leakage and therefore less risk of maceration. The Importance of Absorption and Retention: Exudate absorption is essential to wound healing. Too much exudate can delay healing or cause maceration of the healthy peri-wound skin.The ability of a dressing to handle exudate can be measured based on its ability to absorb and retain fluid. When tested against other foam dressings, BiatainT Adhesive Foam Dressing showed a superior combination of absorption and retention of fluid. Indications: BiatainT Adhesive Foam Dressings - Super absorbent foam dressing for low to highly exudating wounds. Includes hydrocolloid-based adhesive border. Adhesive Foam Dressings are primarily indicated for low to highly exudating wounds including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, chronic wounds, and skin tears. The dressing may be used throughout the healing process to provide padding and protection for all types of wounds and are well-suited for use under a compression device.
