BSN Medical Cutimed Siltec B Silicone Foam Dressings
Cutimed® Siltec B – Self-Adherent Foam Dressing – an assortment of silicone coated foam dressings. Cutimed® Siltec B is a sterile, absorbent polyurethane foam dressing for traumatic dressing changes that contains super-absorbent stripes which absorb and lock wound exudate. The wound contact surface is a perforated silicone layer that allows adherence to the peri-wound skin but not to the moist bed or to newly formed tissue. This minimizes trauma and pain during dressing changes. The outer film is water-repellent, yet permeable to oxygen and vapor. The foam dressing and the super-absorbent stripes are designed to absorb and to lock away excess wound fluid inside the dressing, promoting a moist wound environment and minimizing the risk of maceration. Cutimed® Siltec B is highly conformable and provides protection of the wound site. Cutimed® Siltec B leaves no residues in the wound. The dressing reliably retains wound exudate, even under compression. If necessary, the dressing can be cut to size. Cutimed® Siltec B has an additional silicone adhesive border, that allows secure and gentle fixation of the dressing.
