Suprasorb® P sensitive border silicone foam dressing sterile, 10 x 10 cm, 10 ST

Suprasorb® P sensitive border is a sterile silicone foam dressing for the atraumatic management of acute and chronic wounds. Particularly suitable for sensitive skin.

Suprasorb P sensitive is a silicone foam dressing specifically designed for sensitive^skin¹. Its multi-layered structure enables dynamic exudate management to maintain an optimal moist^{wound environment}². The silicone wound-contact layer minimises the risk of the dressing sticking to the wound and reduces pain during^{dressing changes³}. The outer protective film is waterproof, bacteria-resistant and, at the same time, vapour-permeable.

Indications

For the management of the following wounds:

• Acute and chronic
• Low to high exudate
• Superficial and deep (for deep wounds, use a tamponade as a primary dressing if necessary)

Indications:

• Pressure ulcers
• Leg and foot ulcers
• Traumatic wounds
• Post-operative wounds
• Skin fissures

Stages of wound healing:

• Exudation, granulation and epithelialisation phases

Properties

• The silicone wound contact layer is suitable for sensitive skin.
• Minimises patient pain and trauma to the wounds and the surrounding skin when removing or repositioning the dressing.
• Effective exudate management reduces the risk of maceration and maintains a moist wound environment.
• Shower-proof.
• Easy to apply with 2 or 3 peel-off protective films, preventing the adhesive layer from coming into contact with gloves.
• High conformability, even in difficult-to-reach areas.
• Gentle on the skin.
• Can be used as part of a prophylactic treatment programme to prevent pressure ulcers.
• Saves time due to longer dressing change intervals.
