Description

What is Optifoam Adhesive Foam Wound Dressing?

Medline Optifoam Adhesive Foam Dressing is a highly absorbent, adhesive Foam Wound Dressing that is flexible and conforms to the body. This item's adhesive border effectively seals the bandage to the user, prevents discharge seepage, and prevents bacteria from entering the wound bed. A silicone waterproof outer layer provides extra protection from outside microbes and external moisture. It is possible to shower with the bandage on. Despite its high absorbency and substantial protection, this product remains breathable. This is because the moisture vapor transmission rate of this item changes according to the amount of wound discharge. In addition to these benefits, Optifoam adhesive dressings can be used for almost any wound type and have an extended seven day maximum wear time. Because these bandages can be worn for up to a week, they can also help save users money and resources. Finally, educational packaging is available (item numbers MSC1044EP and MSC1066EP) for users who would like extra application guidance and patient safety information.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a foam dressing?
Foam dressings are semipermeable, hydrophilic, polyurethane dressings that contiain polymers. They absorb exudate and lock it in to maintain a moist wound environment, which is ideal for healing. Foam dressings don't create lint and don't adhere to the wound bed. This helps maintain skin integrity during dressing changes.

What is the difference between Medline MSC1044 and Medline MSC1044EP?
The EP at the end of the product number denotes extra educational packaging for thsoe who need additional application and safety instruction.

Is this product latex free?
Yes, this product is made with silicone and contains no latex.

Do the 4 x 4 inch and 6 x 6 inch measurements represent the overall size of this item or just the pad size?
These dimensions correspond to the size of the entire bandage, including the border. The pad sizes are 2.5 x 2.5 inches and 4.5 x 4.5 inches, respectively.
