Smith & Nephew Primapore Adhesive Dressing

Features

• Highly absorbent and low-adherent pad
  - The polyester wound contact layer enables the passage of blood or exudate into highly absorbent pad while maintaining a good healing environment and minimal pain on dressing removal
• Safe and secure fixation
  - The low allergy acrylic adhesive is evenly spread onto the non-woven backing surface providing a safe and secure dressing fixation over the wound site
• Soft and conformable
  - Ensures patient comfort and conformability to all wound sites (even the more difficult areas like shoulders and axillae)
• Ease of use
  - The protector paper, which is slit across the width of the dressing, enables quick application without the risk of touching the absorbent pad or adhesive area with fingers or forceps
  - The easily opened packaging facilitates aseptic dressing technique
• Patient comfort
  - The thick pad minimizes fluid strike-through and helps to protect the wound from trauma
• Indications:
  - To dress post-operative wounds, minor cuts, abrasions, lacerations and puncture sites where a water-resistant dressing, which aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination, is required
  - May be used as a secondary dressing over gels, ointments and other primary dressings
