| Key Features of Comfeel Plus Contour Dressings
Comfeel Plus Contour Dressing is a Comfeel Plus Ulcer
hydrocolloid dressing with a thin hydrocolloid border.
Its center part
as well as the border contains liquid absorbing particles derived from natural
cellulose in an elastic, self adhesive mass. This is covered on the upper side
by a semi permeable, non adhesive polyurethane film. The cellulose particles expand
strongly when they absorb liquids. Comfeel Plus Contour Dressing maintains
a moist environment which softens necrotic tissue and thus promotes biological
debridement. On absorbing wound exudate the dressing forms a yellowish gel which
fills the entire wound cavity and protects granulation tissue and nerve endings.
The extended border on Comfeel Plus Contour Dressing is designed especially
with a view to treat these problem areas optimally. For example more than half
of all pressure sores are located on the sacrum area, the heels or the elbows.
Ideal Butterfly Shape The extended hydrocolloid border prolongs wear time in difficult
to dress areas and minimise the need for additional taping even in areas such
as the sacrum, heels and elbows. The skin friendly Hydrocolloid adhesive
border minimizes risk of skin tears and maceration often caused by conventional
tapes. Non Touch Application The non touch application system allows
easy application even while wearing gloves.
Flexibility High flexibility
gives maximum patient compliance and comfort as the dressing will move with the
skin and ulcer surface so that it does not restrict patient mobility.
The Comfeel Plus
Contour Dressing retains the odour, so patients can maintain social contacts.
The dressing is also waterproof, enabling patients to shower and bathe while wearing
it. Cohesion The dressing can be removed with a minimum of residue left in the
wound and on the surrounding skin. |
