Description:
ActivHeal® Silicone Wound Contact Layer prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound and reduces pain during dressing changes.
ActivHeal® Silicone Wound Contact Layer dressing is a sterile wound dressing consisting of a knitted polyester fabric coated with silicone adhesive on both sides.
ActivHeal® Silicone Wound Contact Layer dressing is a primary dressing for use when adherence to the wound is a potential problem. The dressing allows exudate to pass into an absorbent secondary dressing. The silicone creates a layer between the dressing and the skin surface which allows the dressing to be removed while minimizing trauma, pain, or damage the delicate new tissue at the wound margin. On the skin, the dressing will provide secure adhesion with minimal epidermal stripping or pain removal.
With wound management being increasingly outcome driven, pain is a major issue for patients with wounds of different etiologies, as many patients experience transient wound related pain when the wound dressing is applied and/or removed. Silicone wound contact layer dressings are often used to increase comfort for the patient, during dressing change.
Indications:
ActivHeal® Silicone Wound Contact Layer dressing is indicated for use on nil to heavily exuding chronic and acute wounds (with appropriate secondary dressing). The dressing may be used throughout the healing process on the following wounds:
- Skin tears
- Partial thickness skin grafts
- Surgical incisions
- Venous ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
- Arterial ulcers
