Provides optimal healing conditions
Biatain® Silicone with 3DFit Technology provides optimal healing conditions by conforming into the wound bed, absorbing vertically and retaining exudate and bacteria even under compression.1
- Conforms into the wound bed to reduce the creation of dead space and thereby reducing the risk of exudate pooling and infection
- Absorbs vertically and retains exudate and bacteria to reduce leakage and maceration of the surrounding skin, supporting healthy wound edges and periwound skin1
- Soft and flexible materials to conform to the body and skin contours2
- Gentle silicone adhesion to stay in place during wear with minimal pain upon removal1
Usage
Biatain® Silicone is a soft and conformable polyurethane foam dressing with a semi-permeable, bacteria- and waterproof top film, a lock-away layer and a soft silicone adhesive layer.
Biatain® Silicone is indicated for a wide range of exuding chronic and acute wounds such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, non-infected diabetic foot ulcers, donor sites, postoperative wounds and traumatic wounds (e.g. skin abrasions, skin tears, cuts). It can be used in combination with compression therapy and may be left in place for up to 7 days.
