The foam is soft against the skin adding little pressure to the sensitive area around the wound. It s extremely flexible which makes it fit perfectly to your body. The foam effectively absorbs and retains wound exudate making sure the moisture balance in and around the wound is just right for healing. Biatain dressings are designed with soft, bevelled edges. This makes the dressing more comfortable and lowers the risk of leaving pressure marks on the skin. Consists of a highly absorbent foam and semi-permeable, top layer for optimal moist environment and extended wear times. Ideal under compression.

9 121 biatain SoFT-HoLD Biatain Soft-Hold functions as a third hand at dressing change. It keeps the dressing in place when you apply a secondary dressing or compression bandaging. Due to the adherent layer, the dressing stays in place at awkward body contours. Soft-Hold has an excellent fluid handling capacity and the Biatain foam structure locks in the fluid whereby maceration is minimised. COL x 4, 5/bx COL x 8, 5/bx COL x 6, 5/bx Nursing biatain Ibu Biatain Ibu is the first dressing to combine moist wound healing with an active pain reliever. In addition to the advantages of the soft and flexible foam, this dressing releases ibuprofen evenly into the wound. This may help to ease pain from the wound during wear and when changing the dressing. Biatain Ibu is suitable for the treatment of: Leg, pressure and non-infected diabetic foot ulcers Smaller second-degree burns Donor sites (applicable only for Biatain Ibu non-adhesive) Postoperative wounds Skin abrasions COL4110 Non-adhesive, 4 x 4, 5/bx COL4112 Non-adhesive, 4 x 8, 5/bx COL4115 Non-adhesive, 6 x 6, 5/bx COL4120 Non-adhesive, 8 x 8, 5/bx COL4140 Softhold, 4 x 4, 5/bx SW4142 Softhold, 4 x 8, 5/bx biatain AG Biatain Ag dressings have an active antimicrobial ingredient. In addition to the advantages of the soft and flexible foam, Biatain Ag dressings are prepared with hydro-activated silver, which is released into the wound during wear. This small innovation reduces infection by 50 per cent within four weeks, and the odour fades or completely disappears in just one week. It is safe and cost-effective.

10 122 Nursing SEASoRb The unique combination of calcium alginate and CMC forms a cohesive gel that absorbs up to 18 times its own weight in exudate. When SeaSorb dressings come into contact with wound exudate the calcium ions from the dressing are replaced by sodium ions present in the exudate. This ion exchange causes Sea- Sorb Soft Dressing and Filler to form a soft, cohesive gel which locks the exudate inside ensuring less risk of leakage or damage to the periulcer skin.
