Askina Heel Shaped Non-Adhesive Foam Dressing 6×5.5×11.5cm

Askina Heel-shaped, non-adhesive foam dressing.

Askina Heel is a heel-shaped, two-layered, non-adherent foam dressing designed to cover the heel and the malleolus. The gentle polyurethane foam can reduce pressure on wounds in this area as well as provide a moist wound environment to promote wound healing. The waterproof outer layer protects the wound from dirt and bacteria.

The product includes the option to use a foam security strap and two self-adhesive hooks that keep the dressing in place even during movement, avoiding the need to use an additional fixation device.

Indications: Askina Heel is indicated for the management of a wide range of moderately to highly exuding wounds, mainly for exudate absorption at the heel site.

• Surgical incisions.
• Stage I – IV pressure ulcers.
• First and second degree burns.

Askina Heel may also be used as an aid for the prevention of skin breakdown on the heel.

Advantages:

• Ready-to-use concept, no fixation device needed
• Innovative anatomical design covering the malleolus
• Pressure-relieving foam
• Good protection against friction and shear stresses

Material: Askina Heel is composed of two layers:

• Layer 1: Outer polyurethane film
• Layer 2: Polyurethane foam
