Benefits | |
Highly absorbent
Promotes early healing Allevyn Heel allows the formation and maintenance of a moist wound healing environment at the wound surface, preventing eschar formation and promoting rapid and trouble free healing. Designed to fit the heel Allevyn Heel dressing is designed to gently fit around the back of the foot allowing the wound to be dressed creating a moist wound healing environment. Cushioned comfort Allevyn Heel dressings are soft and cushioning, giving excellent patient comfort and protection. Clean wound healing Allevyn Heel absorbs and retains exudate, bacteria and cellular debris, providing clean, mess free dressing changes. | |
Indications | |
Allevyn Heel dressing is ideal for use on granulating wounds on the heel or similar anatomical area. | |
Contraindications / Precautions | |
Do not use Allevyn dressings with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions (e.g. Eusol) or hydrogen peroxide solutions, as these can break down the absorbent hydrocellular component of the dressing. Reddening of the skin around the wound has been reported rarely following the use of Allevyn dressings. In some cases this relates to irritation of fragile skin, in others, wound exudate remaining in contact with peri-wound skin for prolonged periods may be the cause. Infrequently, cases of sensitivity to the dressing have also been reported. If reddening or sensitisation occur, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. |
