ALLEVYN◊ Life Silicone Gel Adhesive Foam Dressing - Medium, 12.9cm x 12.9cm, 10/bx, 5 bx/cs

ALLEVYN◊ Life (Smith & Nephew) is a multi-layered foam dressing featuring a silicone wound contact layer. Designed for a wide range of wound sizes, the multi-layered construction of ALLEVYN◊ Life absorbs and locks away fluid, reducing the risk of maceration. Silicone adhesive provides secure fixation with gentle removal, minimizing trauma to the peri-wound skin. ALLEVYN◊ Life provides a breathable, waterproof top layer for protection against external contamination while facilitating moisture vapor transmission.

Please note: All prices are for cases.

Key Features

Five-Layer Construction: Integrates multiple functional layers to maximize fluid management, absorption, and patient comfort.

Exudate Masking Layer: Designed to reduce the visibility of wound fluid, helping to improve patient confidence and well-being.

Gentle Silicone Adhesive: Ensures a secure hold on fragile skin while allowing for atraumatic removal and repositioning.

Unique Quadrilobed Shape: Engineered to fit the contours of the body more effectively than standard square dressings, providing a better seal and longer wear time.

Pressure Redistribution: The thick foam core provides a cushioning effect that assists in the prevention and management of pressure-related injuries.

Advanced Fluid Locking: Retains absorbed exudate even under compression, significantly reducing the risk of periwound maceration.

Ideal Clinical Applications

Moderate to Heavily Exuding Wounds: Optimized for wounds requiring high-capacity fluid management.

Fragile and Sensitive Skin: Ideal for patients with compromised skin integrity where standard adhesives may cause trauma.

Pressure Ulcer Management: Effective for both the treatment of existing pressure ulcers and as part of a prophylactic pressure injury prevention protocol.

Contoured Anatomical Areas: The specialized shape makes it ideal for use on joints or other non-flat body surfaces.
