Askina® Foam

Askina® Foam is a soft, two-layered, non-adherent dressing that is designed to absorb and retain moderate to high wound exudate while providing a moist wound environment to promote healing. The outer vapor-permeable polyurethane film physically protects the wound from water and bacteria.The soft and flexible polyurethane foam provides an excellent conformability to adapt to different wound locations on the body.Askina® Foam wound dressing may be used for: Moderately to heavily exuding woundsChronic wounds, e. g. pressure ulcers, leg and foot ulcersTraumatic wounds, e. g. first and second-degree burns, and surgical wounds

Askina® DresSil Active

Askina® DresSil Active is a multilayer silicone dressing with border designed to provide active exudate management. Its multilayer structure improves exudate retention and absorption while maintaining the adequate moisture level in the wound1. This may reduce the frequency of dressing changes, thereby saving nursing time and allowing more time to be dedicated to patients and their care2.  Askina® DresSil Active is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as:Pressure ulcersLeg and foot ulcersTraumatic wounds (e.g. skin tears)Surgical wounds It can also be used on dry/necrotic wounds in combination with gels. The dressing may also be used as part of a prophylactic therapy to help prevent skin damage, e.g. pressure ulcers.

Askina® DresSil Active Sacrum

Askina® DresSil Active Sacrum is a sacrum multilayer silicone dressing with border designed to provide active exudate management. Its multilayer structure improves exudate retention and absorption while maintaining the adequate moisture level in the wound1. This may reduce the frequency of dressing changes, thereby saving nursing time and allowing more time to be dedicated to patients and their care2. Askina® DresSil Active Sacrum is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as:Pressure ulcersLeg and foot ulcersTraumatic wounds (e.g. skin tears)Surgical woundsIt can also be used on dry/necrotic wounds in combination with gels. The dressing may also be used as part of a prophylactic therapy to help prevent skin damage, e.g. pressure ulcers. MaterialAskina® DresSil Active Sacrum, thanks to its multilayer structure, is designed to offer effective exudate management of chronic wounds:Layer 1: Semi-transparent film with 1 cm apart dots for the Active Exudate Monitoring SystemLayer 2: Superabsorbent layer to absorb and lock in exudateLayer 3: Exudate distribution layer to facilitate quick exudate movement from the foam to the superabsorbent layerLayer 4: Thin foam layer that enables vertical absorption while maintaining a moist environment conducive to wound healingLayer 5: Silicone layer to provide secure fixation while conforming to body contours

Askina® DresSil

Askina® DresSil is a non-bordered, self-adherent soft silicone wound dressing. It absorbs exudate from the wound through silicone perforations and provides a moist wound healing environment to promote wound healing.  The wound contact layer made of silicone reduces pain and trauma during dressing changes, enhancing patient comfort. The waterproof outer layer protects the wound from dirt and bacteria. The soft polyurethane foam conforms to the natural contours of the body making the dressing comfortable to wear, while the waterproof outer layer protects the wound from dirt and bacteria. Askina® DresSil is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds, such as:  Leg and foot ulcersPressure ulcers  Traumatic wounds, e.g. skin tears  Secondary healing woundsMaterial  Askina® DresSil is composed of three layers:  Layer 1: Outer polyurethane filmLayer 2: Absorbent polyurethane foamLayer 3: Silicone adhesive 

Linovera®

Chronic wounds are a major global medical concern,1 significantly impacting patients’ quality of life,2 while also affecting close family and relatives.
