Key Features of Biatain Non-AD Dressings
Description
Individual foam dressings differ significantly in their structure and performance. Almost all wound healing products have the ability to manage wound fluid. The unique 3-D Polymer structures within the Biatain" Non-Adhesive Foam Dressing pad absorbs and locks exudate away. This means there is high exudate retention and no lateral spreading.
A combination of very high absorption and retention capacities means that the Biatain" Non-Adhesive Foam Dressing is a superior choice under compression therapy. A high retention value is indicative of minimum leakage and therefore less risk of maceration.
Better rated absorption capacity - 76 percent of users rated the absorption capacity of Biatain" as excellent compared to only 7 percent of Allevyn users
Reduced leakage - Biatain" had over 62 percent less incidence of leakage as compared to Allevyn
Less need for peri-wound skin treatment - The use of peri-wound skin protection with Biatain" was 24 percent lower than with Allevyn.
Longer wear time - The mean wear time with the Biatain" was longer than with the Allevyn and resulted in 36 percent fewer dressing changes per week.
