ACTIVHEAL® FOAM CONTACT IS A HIGHLY ABSORBENT FOAM DRESSING WITH AN ADHESIVE WOUND CONTACT LAYER
This ActivHeal® Foam Contact is a three-layer dressing that has been developed to offer excellent absorption properties alongside security and protection on moderate to heavily exuding chronic and acute wounds.
The perforated wound contact layer minimises trauma during dressing changes, whilst the continuous adhesive coverage across the dressing ensures it stays securely in place. Each layer of ActivHeal® Foam Contact contributes to the performance of the dressing to ensure that efficient management of exudate is maintained. The polyurethane foam is an absorbent layer which is ergonomically shaped to improve conformability to the wound area. The wound exudate is vertically absorbed into the hydrophilic foam. The third layer of the dressing is a polyurethane film which provides an effective barrier function, which is waterproof whilst allowing the transpiration of exudate when combined with the absorption of the foam, enables an excellent total fluid handling capacity.
ActivHeal® Foam Contact is indicated for moderate to heavily exuding wounds:
- Pressure ulcers
- Venous leg ulcers
- Diabetic ulcers
- Lacerations Abrasions
- Post operative surgical wounds
- Superficial and partial thickness burns
- Cavity wounds (as a secondary dressing)
- Graft wounds and Donor sites
