Description
The Impervia Neosorb Superabsorbent Dressing by Sentry Medical is an advanced solution for managing wounds with moderate to very heavy exudate. Designed with a superabsorbent polymer core, this dressing excels in rapidly absorbing and retaining large volumes of exudate, even under compression. This feature helps maintain a dry wound contact surface, reducing the frequency of dressing changes and minimizing the risk of maceration.
Key Features
- Water-Resistant Design: The dressing includes a blue, ultrasonically bonded, adhesive-free outer envelope that is both water-resistant and latex-free. This design enhances conformability and minimizes skin reactions.
- Leakage Prevention: Sealed on all sides, the dressing wicks moisture outward and expands sideways, protecting clothing and linens from leakage.
- Hypoallergenic Contact Layer: The soft, white, permeable non-woven contact layer is made from hypoallergenic materials, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
Versatile Application
Impervia Neosorb can be used as either a primary or secondary dressing and is compatible with both adhesive and non-adhesive retention products. It is sterilized by ethylene oxide and individually packaged in airtight enclosures, ensuring sterility and convenience.
Indications for Use
This dressing is suitable for a variety of wound types, including:
- Partial thickness burns
- Pressure injuries
- Venous leg ulcers
- Diabetic and arterial ulcers
- Fistulae
- Post-operative wounds
It is particularly beneficial for wounds healing by secondary intent and those requiring exudate management under compression therapy.
Precautions
- Not recommended for use in cavities or deep wounds due to swelling.
- Not suitable for wounds with light exudate.
- Users should be aware of any known allergies to the dressing components.
Instructions for Use
The dressing can remain in place for up to seven days, depending on exudate levels and clinical assessment. Available in various sizes, it offers flexibility to meet diverse wound care needs. Each dressing is intended for single use only and should be stored in a dry, cool place.
With its innovative design and reliable performance, the Impervia Neosorb Superabsorbent Dressing provides effective wound care management, enhancing healing outcomes while protecting surrounding skin and materials.
