Product Info
DescriptionESPUMA®Gentle Comfort is absorbent, polyurethane foam laminated with perforated soft silicone gel wound contact layer which extends beyond the perimeter of foam to allow easy fixation without adhesive tapes or fixation dressing and provide atraumatic dressing removal. The outermost layer of the dressing is polyurethane non-woven bilaminate which is waterproof, bacteria proof and virus proof.
Features- Gentle soft Silicone gel allows atraumatic dressing removal.
- Pattern coated silicone or perforated silicone film, allow free passage of wound exudate to the foam so prevents skin maceration.
- High absorption capacity polyurethane foam also provides a cushioning effect.
- Highly breathable top sheet allows evaporation of absorbed exudates, thus it enhances fluid handling capacity of the dressing.
- Being waterproof, the top sheet prevents strike through and allows showering while the dressing is in place.
