Description

Biatain Silicone Adhesive Foam Heel is expertly crafted to provide optimal care for exuding wounds located on the heel. This specialized dressing, part of the esteemed Biatain Silicone range by Coloplast, is designed with a unique heel shape to ensure a snug and comfortable fit.

Key Features

• Advanced 3D Foam Structure
  The polyurethane foam conforms closely to the wound bed, offering superior absorption. This feature helps maintain a moist wound environment, crucial for effective healing, while locking away exudate even under compression.

• Gentle Silicone Adhesive
  The soft silicone adhesive layer secures the dressing in place without adhering to the wound bed, minimizing pain during removal. This ensures a gentle yet firm attachment, enhancing patient comfort.

• Semi-Permeable Top Film
  The top film is both bacteria-proof and waterproof, safeguarding the wound from external contaminants. This protective barrier reduces infection risk, allowing for safer healing.

Design and Application

• Non-Touch Opening
  The 3-piece non-touch opening design facilitates easy and aseptic application, making it intuitive for healthcare providers.

• Flexible and Soft Design
  The dressing adapts seamlessly to the heel’s contours, providing comfort and reducing the need for frequent adjustments.

Performance Benefits

• Vertical Absorption
  Absorbs exudate vertically to prevent lateral spread, protecting surrounding skin from maceration. This feature is particularly beneficial for wounds up to 2 cm deep, eliminating the need for additional wound fillers.

• Extended Wear Time
  Can remain in place for up to 7 days, depending on wound conditions, potentially reducing the frequency of dressing changes by up to 50%.
