Shapes by PolyMem Oval Film Adhesive Dressings

PolyMem Silver Shapes foam dressings encompass a spectrum of oval sizes. These primary or secondary dressings conform to the surface of the elbow, knee and other curved areas to absorb exudate. How They Work PolyMem dressings pair a polyurethane matrix film backing with a hydrophilic membrane. This combination along with the unique shape: • Helps the dressing conform to contoured areas of the body without detaching or restricting movement while also adjusting to the shape of the wound bed. • Can be applied to both open and closed injuries. • Absorbs 10 times its weight in exudate by taking on a gel consistency. • Provides autolytic debridement to slough off necrotic tissue. • Is easily and painlessly removed during dressing changes, preventing damage to the wound bed and surrounding tissue. • Does not need to be damped for application. • Has a thin, clear, breathable backing that allows you to observe the wound’s progress.
