OPSITE FLEXIGRID ADHESIVE FILM DRESSING 10CM x 12CM

Film Dressings

Film dressings are composed of a thin polyurethane membrane coated with a layer of acrylic adhesive. Whilst being extremely flexible and allowing visualisation of the wound without disturbance, they hold no properties to absorb wound exudate.

These dressings are typically used to manage superficial, minimally exuding wounds and in the case of stage 1 pressure ulcers, offer some protection against friction and shearing forces. Film dressings are not suitable for full thickness, infected or moderate to highly exuding wounds.

Moisture Vapour Permeable Adhesive Film Dressing

OpSite* Flexigrid* is a transparent, adhesive film, with a unique wound measurement grid. The film is moisture vapour permeable, conformable and extensible. It is clinically proven to provide moist wound healing for superficial wounds; it is also ideal for use as a secondary dressing and to help prevent pressure sores.

Benefits              

Faster, safer, less painful wound healing

- OpSiteFlexigrid has set the standard in moist wound healing by retaining wound contact with the natural wound exudate which contains vital nutrients for growing cells, and white blood cells to prevent infection. OpSiteFlexigrid provides an environment for safer and less painful wound healing. The high moisture vapour permeability allows excess exudate to evaporate, preventing skin maceration.

Superior film with acrylic adhesive

- The OpSiteFlexigrid film is highly extensible and conformable, which combined with its high moisture vapour permeability, means the dressing can be left in place for up to 14 days. This minimises interference at the wound site and reduces the amount of nursing time required.

Waterproof

- OpSiteFlexigrid is impermeable to water and body fluids, protecting the skin underneath and allowing the patient to bathe without changing dressings. It also aids in the prevention of bacterial contamination.

Simple, effective application technique

- OpSiteFlexigrid provides a simple and effective application system. The flexible carrier enables single handed application allowing the dressing to conform to the contours of the body. Its transparency enables accurate positioning over the wound site.

Adaptable to Awkward Areas

- OpSiteFlexigrid has been designed to be adaptable for use on all areas of the body. It can be easily cut into strips or shapes for application to awkward areas such as heels, elbows and knees.

Unique Wound Management Grid

- OpSite Flexigrid incorporates a unique wound measurement device which allows simple but accurate assessments of the healing process to be made. After tracing the edges of the wound, the OpSite Flexigrid carrier can be removed and stored in the patient's notes.
