• Gentle Silicone adhesive.

It is used to secure wound dressings, catheters and other medical devices, gastrostomy tubes and other feeding tubes.
It has been shown that soft silicone adhesive does not cause trauma when removed from the skin. It has been described as ‘atraumatic’ for this reason.
Silicone adhesive removes less stratum corneum when compared to a composite hydrocolloid and polyurethane foam using an acrylic adhesive.
Soft Silicone adhesive is a material that adheres readily to intact dry skin but does not stick to the surface of a moist wound and does not cause damage upon removal.
How To Use
- Clean and dry the wound thoroughly
- Remove the release liner from the silicone wound contact layer
- A dressing should be selected that overlaps the wound margin by at least two centimeters.
- In case of ESPUMA® Gentle Lite Comfort, do not cut to size, ESPUMA®Gentle Lite Comfort doesn’t need any retention aid or fixation dressing.

DescripciónESPUMA®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.
Beneficios- 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.
IndicacionesESPUMA®Gentle Comfort is suitable for dressing many types of exuding wounds including leg and pressure ulcers, surgical incisions and traumatic wounds resulting in skin loss, also may be used under compression bandaging.
ContraindicacionesDo not use ESPUMA®Gentle Comfort dressings with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide, as these can break down the absorbent polyurethane component of the dressing.
PrecautionIn case of infection, ESPUMA®Gentle Comfort still can be used but under medical supervision and with antimicrobial conjunctive therapy.
Frequency of ChangeEl intervalo de tiempo transcurrido entre un apósito y otro nuevo dependerá por lo general de la cantidad de exudado que produzca la herida, aunque se puede dejar durante varios días en el caso de heridas cuyo exudado sea escaso y fluido.
