Description

• ALLEVYN Adhesive by Smith & Nephew is an adhesive hydrocellular foam dressing (highly absorbent and advanced) that can stay in place for up to 7 days.
• Mode of action :The advanced triple layer construction of Adhesive facilitates dynamic fluid management to provide the optimal wound environment, which promotes healing and may help minimise the risk of maceration. The backing film aids in the prevention of fluid and bacterial strikethrough. The dressing can be left in place without the need for secondary fixation and is both easy to apply and remove.
• Indications :Wound management by secondary intention on shallow, granulating wounds chronic and acute exudative wounds, full and partial thickness wounds such as pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, malignant wounds, surgical wounds, first and second degree burns, donor sites and fungating ulcers.
• Benefits :Adhesive consists of a highly absorbent hydrocellular foam pad held between an adhesive perforated wound contact layer and a highly permeable outer top film
• Breathable Top Film : The outer polyurethane top film switches to become more breathable in the presence of exudate. It also helps to prevent strikethrough and provides an effective barrier to bacteria and minimises the risk of cross contamination.
• Highly Absorbent Foam Core : The hydrocellular foam core is highly absorbent, providing absorption capacity for up to 7 days.* Non-Adherent Wound Contact Layer : The wound contact layer has a low allergy based adhesive, which adheres well to intact skin, will not stick to the wound and has a proven low risk of skin irritation.The unique triple layer technology effectively manages exudate helping to ensure that the wound is kept at optimum moisture levels to support moist wound healing.
