Smith&Nephew 66000451 - Allevyn Adhesive Sacrum Dressing, 22cm x22cm, BOX 10

Smith & Nephew Allevyn Adhesive Sacrum Dressing is a specially shaped foam dressing designed to provide superior pressure ulcer management and comfortable wound care at home. This hydrocellular dressing measures 22cm by 22cm and comes in a convenient box of ten sterile dressings, giving you reliable protection for managing wounds on the sacral area near the tailbone. The unique anatomical shape is crafted to fit the contours of the sacrum, moulding gently into place for secure coverage and reduced risk of leakage. Its low-allergy adhesive is designed to stick well to intact skin but not to wounds, helping to minimize skin irritation while keeping the dressing securely in place. The triple-layer construction works quietly in the background to manage wound fluid effectively. A perforated contact layer allows fluid to pass through into the highly absorbent hydrocellular foam core, which locks moisture away in its microscopic structure. The breathable waterproof outer film allows excess moisture to evaporate while protecting against bacteria and preventing strike-through. This creates a balanced, moist healing environment that supports natural recovery. Allevyn Adhesive Sacrum dressings can stay in place for up to five days, reducing the need for frequent changes and giving you more confidence between dressing applications. The profiled edges taper to a micro-thin border, staying comfortably in place under clothing or bedding. Soft and cushioning, these Smith & Nephew dressings offer excellent comfort and protection for managing pressure sores and other wounds in the sacral area at home.
