OpSite Post-Op is a revolutionary post-operative dressing combining a high Moisture Vapour Transmission Rate (MVTR) film and the cushioning and absorbency of a low adherent pad together with an easy application carrier system. The hydrophilic polyurethane film on OpSite Post-Op has REACTIC* properties that 'switch on' in the presence of moisture allowing any excess to transpire into the atmosphere.
OpSite Post-Op offers the following advantages:
|
|
Bacterial barrier Protects the site against extrinsic contamination, reducing the risk of infection by bacteria. |
|
|
|
|
Waterproof film Patient can shower with the dressing in situ. |
|
|
Low allergy adhesive A unique grid pattern adhesive minimising the risk of an allergic response. |
|
|
Highly absorbent pad Rapidly absorbs serous exudate. Allows lateral spread across the pad to maximise absorbency and reduce the risk of skin maceration. |
|
|
Low adherence The wound contact layer enables exudate to pass through to allow minimal trauma on removal. |
|
|
Conformable Comfortable and non obtrusive for the patient. |
|
|
High MVTR The patented REACTIC* film has a unique molecular structure with an MVTR of 11000g/m 2/24hr 3, making it significantly more permeable to water vapour than ordinary films in the presence of moisture. |
|
|
Round corners/thin film Reduces occurrence of lifting or snag, helping the dressing to stay in place for longer. |
