HYDROCOLLOID REPLICARE THIN 2X2.75EA

SMITH & NEPHEW Replicare thin hydrocolloid dressing is indicated for exudate absorption and the management of partial to full thickness wounds including ulcers (venous, arterial, diabetic), pressure sores, donor sites, surgical incisions, surgical excisions, and burns (first- and second-degree). It creates and maintains a moist wound environment which has been established as the optimal environment for the management of wounds. Replicare provides physical separation between the wound and external environments to assist in preventing bacterial contamination of the wound. The sterile, no-touch, self-adhering application system makes replicare thin simple to apply even while wearing gloves. High cohesive properties keep the dressing from falling apart and leaving residue in the wound, so there is minimal risk of local irritation. Replicare thin stretches easily and returns to its original shape more completely than other hydrocolloid dressings even over joints. This suppleness and flexibility allows the dressings to give without migrating, minimizing granulation tissue injury and damage to periwound skin integrity. Replicare thin promotes more cost-effective use of material and resources and nursing services. The dressing is totally transparent, so there is no need to disturb the dressing to check for saturation or healing progress. The waterproof polyurethane film cover material allows the dressing to be easily cleaned and permits patients to bathe or shower without the need for a dressing change. The dressing also aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination. The no-touch application system results in fewer wasted dressings, and the combination of conformability, adhesion and absorption extends wear time and reduces the risk of wound contamination. Size 2" x 2-2/4". Twelve dressings allowed per thirty days. Sold by the each. To receive a box order ten each or use product number 2141
