Description
Medline Optifoam Gentle EX Bordered Foam Adhesive Dressing provides advanced wound care with exceptional patient comfort and clinical performance. This 4×4 inch bordered dressing features a unique silicone adhesive that adheres gently to skin while providing secure fixation without causing trauma during removal. The highly absorbent foam core effectively manages moderate to heavy exudate while maintaining an optimal moist wound healing environment. The low-profile design with tapered edges reduces the risk of edge lift and roll-up, ensuring the dressing stays in place longer. The vapor-permeable backing allows moisture vapor transmission while providing a barrier against external contaminants and bacteria. Ideal for pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, and other acute or chronic wounds. The gentle silicone adhesive is particularly suitable for fragile skin, elderly patients, or frequent dressing changes. Each box contains 10 individually sterile-packed dressings for clinical convenience and infection control. Medline’s commitment to wound care innovation ensures optimal healing outcomes with enhanced patient comfort. The bordered design eliminates the need for secondary fixation in most applications.
Suggested Use
Cleanse wound and surrounding skin according to facility protocol. Remove backing paper and apply dressing ensuring complete contact with wound margins. Smooth edges to ensure proper adhesion. Change dressing when clinically indicated, typically every 3-7 days depending on wound condition and exudate levels. May remain in place for up to 7 days.
