Features and Benefits |
- McKesson PHMB Hydrophilic Foam Dressing with Acrylic Adhesive
- Sterile wound dressing with acrylic adhesive impregnated with PHMB
- Features polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) substance which kills and inhibits the growth of bacteria
- Absorbent dressing designed for moderately to heavily exuding wounds
- Maintains effectiveness against a broad range of gram positive and gram negative microorganisms including some multi-drug resistant strains such as MRSA
- In-vitro testing demonstrated dressings to be effective against the following three gram positive bacteria, three gram negative bacteria, and two yeast challenge organisms within the dressing: MRSA, MRSE, VRE, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa
- Superior aeration provided semi-occlusive design allows the exchange of gases such as oxygen and water vapor
- Transparent, perforated wound contact layer design allows the uptake of exudate and prevents excess fluid from causing maceration to healthy skin
- Indicated for use in the temporary management of post-surgical incisions, pressure sores, venous stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers, donor sites, abrasions, lacerations, 1st and 2nd degree burns, dermatologic disorders, other wounds inflicted by trauma, and as a secondary dressing or cover dressing for packed wounds
- Three-layer construction made up of waterproof polyurethane bacterial barrier film, hydrophilic PHMB polyurethane foam pad, and perforated wound contact layer
- Pink, low-friction polyurethane film layer provides a waterproof, bacterial barrier to the wound
- Conformable
- Provides fast-wicking action
- Individually packaged for single sterile use
- Not Made with Natural Rubber Latex
- Packaged: 1 Each, 10 Each Per Box, 10 Boxes Per Case

|
- Wicks bacteria laden exudate into the foam and away from the wound surface with natural negative pressure through capillary flow
- Safe, autolytic debridement
- Manages bioburden
- Safe, non-cytotoxic
- High tensile strength
|
- Maintains a moist wound environment without the need for hydration and has a wear time of up to seven days, requiring fewer dressing changes
- Manages bioburden
- Safe, non-cytotoxic
- Kills bacteria in the dressing
|
- Tackles wounds with higher exudate, managing absorption of the secretions while maintaining a moist wound bed
- No film backing increases exudate management options
- Non-cytotoxic
- Manages bioburden
- No hydration required before use
- Up to 7 day wear time
