ACTIVHEAL® FOAM ADHESIVE IS AN ABSORBENT FOAM DRESSING IDEAL FOR MODERATE TO HIGH EXUDING WOUNDS.

FEATURES EXCELLENT ABSORPTION OF EXUDATE // VERSATILE // PROMOTES HEALING THROUGH A MOIST WOUND ENVIRONMENT // REDUCES THE RISK OF MACERATION // WATERPROOF // BACTERIAL BARRIER // SOFT AND COMFORTABLE //

ActivHeal® Foam Adhesive is a two layer dressing indicated for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Each layer of the ActivHeal® Foam Adhesive contributes to the performance of the dressing.

The dressing comprises of a polyurethane absorbent foam pad and a polyurethane membrane. The core of the dressing is a layer of absorbent polyurethane foam which absorbs wound exudate vertically into the dressing. The absorbent pad retains the exudate within the dressing preventing the exudate from re-entering the wound and preventing maceration to the peri wound and surrounding skin. The polyurethane membrane provides an effective barrier function and is waterproof whilst allowing the transpiration of exudate which aids the total fluid handling capacity of the dressing.

Indicated for moderate to heavily exudating wounds. The dressing offers a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive border ensuring the dressing remains in place allowing the patient to continue everyday activities confidently. The dressing conforms to the contours of the body which reduces the risk of rucking or catching on clothing and bedding.

Day 1. The wound presented healthy granulation tissue however it had become inert. The tissue surrounding the wound was hydrated, healthy and there were no complaints of discomfort. Exudate levels remained moderate.

Day 9. The wound continued to improve with good epithelial growth. The patient’s discomfort levels remained low and there were no signs of peri ulcer skin reactions. The dressing was easy to apply, remove and was atraumatic for the patient.

      CASE STUDY

      Patient A was admitted to the unit with a fresh, sizeable skin tear to her left shin. The skin on her right leg was in danger of further breakdown. Her past medical history included left hemiparesis due to cerebral infarct, osteoarthritis, hypertension, shingles and low mood.
      Image of a skin tear day 1
      Day 1. The wound was assessed and the skin tear measured 7cm at the widest point. The dermis and the epidermis had been pulled apart. Distally the epidermal flap was lost, leaving a small area of dermal tissue exposed. The wound had no areas of necrosis or slough, moderate levels of exudate and no sign of infection. Additionally the flap was also viable.
      Wound Case Study
      Day 12. The wound continued to show improvement following the use of ActivHeal® Non-Adhesive Foam. Proximal wound margins were now apposed. No signs of maceration or breakdown of surrounding skin. The wound area had reduced in size and contained both granulation tissue and epithelial tissue.
      Wound Case Study
      Day 32. The wound showed a good level of healing and, as a result, the patient was discharged from the unit back into the community. The District Nurses were requested to moisturise both legs, then continue with ActivHeal® Non-Adhesive Foam, which was held in place with a tubular bandage to protect the delicate, newly healed tissue and prevent tissue breakdown.
