Areza Foam Dressing with Adhesive Border 6.5” x 6.5” is composed of three layers: 1- a central polyurethane (PU) foam pad with a size of 4.1” x 4.1” and 5 mm thickness. Foam pad to lay on exuding wounds and is non-adhesive as long as it is used on actively exuding wounds. 2- a very thin PU backing layer which is soft, white in color, breathable, and reinforced with Spunlace, nonwoven fabric mesh. Note: this layer provides water resistance, but it is not waterproof. Meaning liquid may cross from the outer surface to the inside with some delay (normally about 10-20 mins or longer). Unless the foam is soaked, exudate does not cross from the inner surface to outer surface. This dressing is not suitable for showering or swimming. 3- an adhesive layer composed of medical grade Henkel glue that is adhered onto the second layer, the Spunlace, nonwoven fabric mesh.
A wound covering typically in the form of a multi-layered pad having a material or substance on its skin-contact surface (e.g., silicone gel), or designed to be soaked in saline prior to application, to prevent adherence to the wound bed thereby decreasing wound trauma potential; it does not contain an antimicrobial agent. It is typically used to absorb wound blood/exudates while protecting the wound from external contamination and maintaining a moist internal environment. It may be used as a primary or secondary dressing to treat chronic and postoperative wounds, burns, ulcers, abrasions, cuts, or puncture sites; it is not a dedicated burn dressing. This is a single-use device.
