Coloplast Inc. - Biatain Foam Dressing - Sterile Sacral 9x9 W/Hydrocolloid Adhesive Boarder, 1 ea

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 Sacral Foam Dressing pad absorbs and locks exudate away. This means there is high exudate retention and no lateral spreading. 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 Sacral Foam Dressing showed a superior combination of absorption and retention of fluid. Indications: BiatainT Sacral Foam Dressings - Super absorbent foam dressing for low to highly exudating wounds. Includes hydrocolloid-based adhesive border. Sacral Foam Dressings are primarily indicated for low to highly exudating wounds including 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.
