ESPUMA® Sealed Edges Heel is a cup shaped trilaminate construction made of soft, thick and elastic polyurethane foam, sandwiched between an outer most breathable polyurethane film and wound contacting TPU film. The edges of the outermost and the innermost polyurethane film are sealed together with a unique technique to prevent leakage when foam is saturated with exudates and upon compression, and the trilaminate is die cut into a cup shaped dressing that can fit the heel and elbow areas.

• As três camadas do penso funcionam em conjunto para garantir a presença de um ambiente húmido no local da ferida, uma capacidade de absorção elevada e um tempo de utilização prolongado sem maceração.
• The sealed edges of the dressing allow longer wear time without risk of maceration of the skin surrounding the wound because exudates cannot leak laterally even when foam is saturated with exudates or compressed under a compression therapy.
•  Reduz a frequência com que o penso é mudado.
• The wound contacting perforated film prevents adherence of foam to the wound, allowing removal without pain or trauma. It also regulates fluid uptake of foam.
• The cup shaped dressing well fits the elbow and heel areas which are hardly managed by traditional shapes of dressing.
• The outermost polyurethane film is highly breathable to allow absorbed exudates to evaporate, this increases the fluid handling capacity of foam in total.

ESPUMA® Sealed Edges Heel A gama de produtos PharmasuperFoam pode ser utilizada nos seguintes tipos de feridas e úlceras com uma taxa de drenagem/exsudação moderada a acentuada:

• Úlceras arteriais de espessura parcial e total.
• Queimaduras e abrasões de espessura parcial.
• Feridas cirúrgicas expostas.
• Úlceras na perna por insuficiência venosa.

• Do not use with oxidizing agents as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide solutions as this can breakdown the absorbent hydro cellular component of the dressing.
