Allevyn Life 5x5 Inch Foam Dressing (Smith & Nephew 66801068) is a uniquely shaped dressing that caters specifically to the common fears and stresses that come with wounds. The foam dressing has five different layers that allow it to reduce visibility of exudate and prevents leakage. This is possible by the highly absorbent foam in addition to the fluid locking technology contained in every dressing. Multiple layers also serve to cushion and protect wounds from accidental bumps causing additional pain and delaying healing.
Allevyn Life Bandages are uniquely shaped to conform to the difficult contoured areas of the body. The Allevyn 66801068 is perfect for places like elbows, ankles, shoulders, etc. Other difficult areas require their own shape, such as the Allevyn Life Sacrum or Allevyn Life Heel dressings that are also available. Each has a wide border that allows it to stay in place without fear of the dressing falling off throughout the day, even during showers. This not only provides more peace of mind to the patient, but it also reduces wasted bandages, saving money as well as time for increased dressing changes. The dressing can be worn up to seven days, depending on the amount of exudate.
Allevyn Life 5x5 Inch Dressing helps to minimize pain to the user by covering a large surface area, which spreads pressure out rather than focusing on one location. The bottom layer is made of silicone, making it easy to remove and gentle on skin, reducing the risk of additional damage and healing time. It also locks in odors to reduce embarrassment and negative attention to the wound.
