Smith & Nephew ALLEVYN Gentle Border Lite Adhesive Wound Dressing, Silicone Gel, Hydrocellular Foam, 6" x 6"

ALLEVYN Gentle Border Lite Wound dressing has been specially designed for people with sensitive or fragile skin who have light to moderately exuding wounds. It delivers fluid management via the unique triple-action technology which absorbs, retains and transpires the optimal balance of fluid. This optimises the moist wound environment and helps to promote healing.
Highly breathable film.
The 2mm foam core ensures excellent flexibility so the dressing molds to the body, even on awkward areas, providing a comfortable fit for patients.
Showerproof dressing allows patients to shower with the dressing in place, helping to improve their quality of life.
Easy to apply and remove- the dressing can be lifted and repositioned without losing adhesion.
Bacterial barrier- which helps to minimize the risk of infection from external contaminants.
Up to seven day wear time.
Indications: 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, skin tears, fungating ulcers, oncological wounds, epidermolysis bullosa wounds.
For prevention: It can help prevent pressure ulcers from forming under medical respiratory devices, and can rub or cause breakdown of skin that is already thin and fragile, with its thin foam core, fits easily under cannula, tubing and masks.
Precautions: Do not use with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide, as these can break down the absorbent polyurethane component of the dressing, if reddening or sensitisation occurs discontinue use.
