Allevyn

The Allevyn Difference

Smith+Nephew’s innovative vision in wound management and wound care is evident in its Allevyn bandages that are designed to prevent infection, protect the skin and prevent pressure injuries. These clean and discrete Allevyn pads feature a breathable top film layer for faster fluid removal; below the top film layer are layers that include a protective mask, a hyper-absorbent lock-away core and hydrocellular foam. The soft foam also alleviates pressure points on the heels, sacrum, buttocks, scapula and occiput.

Each Allevyn foam bandage features a multi-layer design that has been shown to significantly redistribute pressure over a larger contact area to encourage healing. EXULOCK Advanced Lock-In Technology aids in exudate management and the EXUMASK change indicators provide clear visual guides to ensure timely bandage changes. Allevyn bandages can be worn while showering. These bandages protect wounds for up to one week; however, for specific wound bandage changing schedules, consult a medical professional or a wound care expert.

Allevyn Wound Care

Also known as Allevyn pad dressing, this wound dressing comes in two different options: Allevyn adhesive dressing and Allevyn non-adhesive dressing. Varying shapes are available to choose from to match the size and the location of the wound. Allevyn non-adhesive dressing is made with polyurethane. Like the adhesive dressing, Allevyn’s non-adhesive wound care products have breathable top films followed by foam layers for superior fluid removal. Additionally, these non-adhesive foam dressings are equipped with sealed and shaped edges to protect against wound leakage. The Allevyn adhesive options include Allevyn Thin, Allevyn Lite, Allevyn Compression and Allevyn Plus.

Multiple Shapes

Allevyn dressings are designed to fit most wound shapes, wound sites and different levels of exudate. Available shapes include Allevyn’s signature quadrilobed shape — a four-quadrant bandage that assists with easy placement on both flat and contoured regions of the body that may be hard to dress. This unique shape securely fits body contours to effectively stay in place. Whether wound care is needed for heels, the sacrum, tracheostomy wounds or any other body area, Allevyn Life foam dressings are must-haves for proper healing. The top-selling Allevyn products are Allevyn adhesive dressings, non-adhesive Allevyn foam dressing, Allevyn Ag and the Allevyn Life composite dressings that feature silicone adhesives to minimize tissue injury.
