PU foam dressing polyurethane foam wound dressing adsorbent type

PU Foam dressing:

Foam dressings can be used on wounds that have softened necrotic tissue. They are also flexible and can be cut to fit specific body parts like toes, fingers, or ears. Because of their thermal properties, foam dressings can be used on a wound which needs insulation to keep it warm. Additionally, foam dressings can be helpful in protecting the skin on top of bony prominences or high friction areas on the skin.

The flexibility of foam dressings allows for a wide variety of clinical applications with wounds that have from moderate to heavy exudate. Because they are easy to use and can be easily cut to fit irregular wound areas, they are a good dressing choice for many situations.

Mechanisms:

1. The porous structure helps it with more and faster absorbency;
2. Gel can be formed after absorbing exudates to keep moist environment for the wound;
3. Caminoted to a semi-permeable, anti-bacterial and water-proof polyurethane film backing;
4. It is soft, elastic, comfortable and can decrease the wound pressure;

PU Foam dressing feature:

Non-draining wounds and third-degree burns are generally not good candidates for foam dressings. These dressings are also not effective on wounds which have dry eschar because with no exudate, the wound bed may be too dry for a moist wound healing environment (though in these cases foam dressings can be used to keep the eschar dry and protect it from accidental removal). Excessive exudate can be a contraindication if the foam is being soaked through quickly, possibly allowing external bacteria to enter the wound. In addition, excessive exudate can require too many dressing changes and cause maceration of the periwound area. In such cases, a more absorbent foam or another dressing type is indicated.

Specification:

Apply to different phase of wound, especially to heavy exudated wound. Adaptable to I-II degree burn and scald wound.
