Description

Comfeel Plus Transparent is a versatile hydrocolloid dressing crafted by Coloplast, designed to enhance the healing process of none to low exuding wounds. Its thin and flexible nature allows it to conform comfortably to various body contours, making it suitable for both chronic and acute wounds such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, superficial burns, and postoperative wounds.

Key Features

• Moisture Management: The dressing maintains an optimal moist environment, crucial for effective wound healing. Its semi-permeable polyurethane top film allows moisture vapor to escape while preventing water and bacteria from entering.

• Transparency: One of the standout features is its transparency, which permits visual inspection of the wound without the need to remove the dressing, thereby reducing unnecessary disturbance to the healing process.

• Protection: The water- and bacteria-proof film acts as a barrier against external contaminants, safeguarding the wound.

Design and Application

The dressing includes a printed mapping grid that aids in monitoring the wound and indicates when changes are necessary. Its 3-piece non-touch application system, complete with turquoise touch points, ensures aseptic and controlled application, even in challenging conditions.

• Comfort and Flexibility: Ultra-thin with bevelled edges, it minimizes friction and the risk of edge lift, enhancing comfort during wear.

• Customizable Fit: The ability to cut the dressing to size makes it ideal for areas prone to friction or those under medical devices.

Packaging and Instructions

User-friendly packaging with life-size photos and illustrated instructions simplifies selection and application. Available in various sizes, the dressings are packaged individually or in boxes of 5 or 10.

Composition

The hydrocolloid adhesive contains sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) particles, forming a gel upon contact with wound exudate. This gel absorbs moisture without adhering to the wound bed, while excess moisture evaporates through the top film, reducing the need for frequent dressing changes.

• Material Safety: Free from pectin, latex, colophony, and animal derivatives, ensuring compatibility with sensitive skin.

Regulatory Information

Comfeel Plus Transparent is regulated as a medical device, non-toxic, and non-hazardous, aligning with EC (REACH) and US OSHA standards. It is recommended to store the product at room temperature and follow local guidelines for application, especially when used under masks or goggles for skin protection.

This comprehensive design makes Comfeel Plus Transparent an excellent choice for effective wound management and skin protection, providing peace of mind to healthcare professionals and patients alike.
