AQUACEL Non-Adhesive Foam Dressing

AQUACEL® Foam dressing has a soft absorbent Foam pad, an AQUACEL® interface, a gentle silicone adhesive, and a waterproof/bacteria barrier. AQUACEL® Foam dressing is the only Foam that has comfort, simplicity and the healing benefits of an AQUACEL® Interface.

AQUACEL® Foam dressing is powered by Hydrofiber® technology which:
• Absorbs wound fluid and creates a soft gel, maintaining a moist wound environment
• Locks in exudate through vertically wicking, reducing the risk of maceration
• Helps minimize pain while in place and during dressing changes 3-6

AQUACEL® Foam dressing is designed for:
• Exuding wounds
• Use as a primary dressing on shallow wounds
• Use as a secondary dressing on highly exuding wounds
• Use for a skin protection as part of a comprehensive protocol of care

Consider using AQUACEL® Foam dressings for exuding wounds, as a primary dressing on shallow wounds, as a secondary dressing on highly exuding wounds, and/or for skin protection as part of a comprehensive protocol of care.

How Hydrofiber® Technology Works

• Hydrofiber® Technology is a soft, absorbent material that transforms into a gel on contact with wound fluid
• The gelling action creates an optimal environment for wound healing

Locks in Exudate and Traps Bacteria
• Helps protect periwound skin and reduce maceration
• May help to minimize wound and cross-infection during removal

Micro-Contours to Wound Bed

• Minimizes “dead space” where bacteria can grow
• Maintains moisture balance in the wound bed

Respond to wound fluid levels by forming a cohesive gel
• Forms a cohesive gel when in contact with exudates
• Provides rapid and sustained antimicrobial activity on demand (dressings with ionic silver)
