MedVance Silver Foam Ag Sterile Highly Absorbent Dressing with PU Backing, 4"x 4", 5 dressings/Box, 5 Count (Pack of 1)

I loved this foam in caregiving for my husband. I used it for padding on his skin. It is non-adhesive. His skin was very delicate and needed padding without more breakdown. This helps tremendously. Highly recommend it, especially for people who might have skin breakdown or pressure sores. It helped keep my honey together until he passed four months ago.

I've been trying to get on top of leg ulcer sores I've had for 2 months now.. 1 emergency room visit, 4 doctor visits & $5,000 later... not one medical person suggested the need to ALSO FOCUS ON HEALING THE SORE ITSELF! I've been exudating maybe 2 cups or more of serum daily from my 3 sores (yellowish to clear liquid) that cover 20 square inches total from all 3 sores. Walking around the house with a rolled towel taped around my bare angle and changing it every couple hours... I never realized until now how terrible and painful leg ulcers can be. I got Algicate+ Gelling Calcium Alginate and also the Silver Calcium Alginate dressing versions to alternate directly on the sores. They develop a thick gel to seal, protect & heal, addiing a thin coat of MediHoney on the dressing, then add this 6x6 MedVance TM Foam dressing over the top of the healing wound cover. The combination completely stopped all fluid weeping from the dressings and after 3 days the outer gauze wrap was still dry & white! WOW what a difference!! This pad also adds some extra cusioning to the wounds and I finally realized most of the pain from these sores is when the raw outer surface of the skin gets aggravated by anything rough (even smooth cotton gauze wrap is almost like sharp steel wire when it is put right on an open flesh sore)... it took me weeks to realize that removing the dressings usually relieved the sore pain within 15 minutes. HIGH Absorbency and being a large 6x6 cushioning pad directly over sores or open wounds is why I really love these pads and am now going to buy more for my medical stock. You can cut this foam into smaller pieces; I put the white side toward the other dressing and the yellow part facing outbward, since it looks like the yellow part is a seal to prevent moisture from leaking past it. Great product that has helped to greatly relieve my pain and increase comfort for heavily exudating leg sores!

My dad is bedridden, these pads help protect and cushion his butt from bedsores. They are expensive but work great! 4 stars because of the price.

It is important to research products prior to application to wounds. PHMB foam is intended for highly exudative wounds at risk for infection or critically colonized. Currently using for venous ulceration with heavy bioburden. Very happy with the results.

If you're looking for something like this that has adhesive on the back I would keep looking. The instructions even clearly say that a secondary dressing is required to hold this dressing on. That's unfortunate too because these foam wound dressings are quite nice. I can't really use a secondary dressing over something like this because in the past I have fallen asleep with such a dressing and no matter what I've tried using to hold something like this over my wound, always winds up damaging my wound even further. What has always worked the best is a foam dressing called, "Mepilex," that can be stuck straight onto the wound thanks to it's, "Safetac," technology. Yes, believe it or not such a thing exists, and even though it can be stuck straight onto the wound it comes off incredibly easy without damaging the wound. At least, that's been the case for me. I was excited to see this wound dressing though because the Mepilex wound dressings can cost up to and over $60 for just 5 of them. Anyway, getting these wasn't a total loss. It has led to me finding something else that should be just like the Mepilex at less than half of the cost. For anyone else who might be interested to know that, the other wound dressing like this that I've found is called, "MedVance TM Silicone - Silicone Adhesive Foam Absorbent Dressing." And it costs $24.99 for a box of 5 of them just like these.

Real deal and super absorbant. I use these to take care of clients.

They're not the best in the world but they they're good for the money you pay for them you know if you want top of the line s*** you got to pay out the ass for it this is pretty good cheap and good

And do what they're supposed to do. Please note that they are NOT adhesive! I know that should seem obvious, but other reviewers have said that they *are* which is why I bought them instead of the million dollar mepilex ones. Buy the million dollar mepilex ones if you need adhesive; buy these if you have a support system in place

Very good protection for non infected wounds that are in mobile locations. The size is versatile and the dressing can be cut to shape.

Buenas calidad

deçu car pansement non adherent ne colle pas du tout il faut ajouter un pansement collant dessus pas pratique du tout

Ottimo prodotto. Fa il suo lavoro egregiamente.

Cercavo un prodotto simile ad Allevyn per prevenire e curare le piaghe da decubito di mia madre, allettata. Questo è un prodotto di alta qualità.
