Medline Optifoam Gentle Silicone Border Dressing

Medline Optifoam Gentle Foam Wound Dressing Features

1. Highly breathable film works as a secure waterproof barrier to bacteria
2. A super absorbent layer of Optifoam adhesive foam dressing absorbs and retains exudate in the Optifaom dressing, minimizing the risk of maceration
3. The transfer layer between the super absorbent layer and wicking foam layer ensures that exudate is transferred to the super absorbent layer as efficiently as possible
4. The foam layer initiates vertical absorption of exudate away from the wound bed into the transfer and super absorbent layers, thereby minimizing the pooling of exudate at the wound face of the absorbent dressing
5. Silicone adhesive minimizes trauma to the wound and helps reduce pain upon wear or removal
