AQUACEL® Foam Pro
AQUACEL® Foam Pro is the advanced foam dressing from ConvaTec that combines the benefits of silicone foam, with the unrivalled advantage of Hydrofiber® Technology for exudate management - designed to promote wound healing of chronic and acute wounds.
AQUACEL® Foam Pro has a protective top layer - smooth, breathable polyurethane film that handles the evaporation (MVTR) of the absorbed wound fluid. It protects the wound from contamination, which reduces the risk of infection. The core of the bandage is a multi-layer foam bandage with Hydrofiber® technology that maintains a good microclimate on the skin. In addition, with vertical absorption, which traps the wound fluid in the bandage, and reduces spread in the side. This helps reduce the risk of leakage and maceration of the surrounding skin, even during compression.
AQUACEL® Foam Pro provides efficient fluid management, improved patient comfort and is particularly suitable for patients with fragile and sensitive skin and can be used as a primary foam bandage for:
Moderately exuding and bleeding wounds
Chronic wounds: leg ulcers, pressure ulcers (categories II-IV), diabetic foot ulcers
Acute wounds: such as surgical wounds (postoperative incisions, secondary healing wounds or donor surfaces), partial burns of the skin and skin abrasions and tears.
AQUACEL® Foam Pro has a gentle silicone adhesive that ensures a durable and gentle adhesion. The bandage is changed when clinically indicated, or after a maximum of 7 days
