Specialty Absorptives / Super Absorbents

Specialty absorptive or superabsorbent dressings are multilayer wound covers that provide either a semi-adherent or a non-adherent layer, combined with highly absorptive layers of fibers, such as cellulose, cotton, or rayon. Designed to minimize adherence to the wound and manage exudate. They may be used as a primary or secondary dressing to manage surgical incisions, lacerations, abrasions, burns, donor or skin graft sites, or any other type of exudating wound.

Specialty absorptive dressings are multi-layered wound covers that provide either a semi-adherent quality or a non-adherent layer, combined with highly absorptive layers of fibers, such as cellulose, cotton or rayon. These dressings are designed to minimize adherence to the wound and manage exudate.

Specialty absorptive dressings feature the following general performance properties and attributes:
• Easy to remove
• Highly absorptive (moderate to heavy drainage)

Specialty absorptive dressings are indicated for use as a primary or secondary dressing to manage partial- and full-thickness wounds such as surgical incisions, lacerations, abrasions, burns, donor or skin graft sites, or any exudating wound.

No known contraindications.

Specialty absorptive dressings may not be appropriate for use over an undermined wound.
