ActivHeal Foam Tracheostomy Dressing, 10 x 10 cm

Actively Foam Tracheostomy dressing is a sterile, highly absorbent wound dressings with a fenestration, which allows the dressing to fit neatly around a tracheostomy tube. The tracheostomy foam dressing consists of a hydrophilic absorbent polyurethane foam laminated to a pink, low friction waterproof polyurethane film, which also provides a bacterial barrier. The tracheostomy foam dressing is soft, conformable and also provides cushioning to the area surrounding the tracheostomy tube, whilst also having the ability to absorb moderate to high levels of exudates, which helps prevent maceration around the site of intubation. The tracheostomy foam dressing is a non-adhesive, which minimizes adherence to both the surrounding skin and the tracheostomy tube, reducing trauma for the patient during use and on removal. As well as fitting around a tracheostomy tube, the dressing can also be used around intubation and cannula insertions procedures, external bone fixators and appropriately sized wound drainage tubes. Measures 10 cm length by 10 cm width.
