Description

Biatain Shaped Adhesive, crafted by Coloplast, is an advanced wound care solution designed to enhance healing through superior absorption and retention of exudate. This dressing is made from soft, flexible polyurethane foam, ensuring it conforms closely to the wound bed and body contours, even on non-planar surfaces. Its unique 3D foam structure provides exceptional absorption, locking away exudate and maintaining an optimal moist environment for wound healing.

Key Features

• Hydrocolloid Adhesive Border: Ensures secure adhesion while minimizing discomfort during removal.
• Semi-Permeable Top Film: Waterproof and bacteria-proof, yet permeable to water vapor, protecting the wound from external contaminants.
• Gentle Silicone Adhesive: Offers a secure fit with minimal pain upon removal.

Moisture Management

Biatain Shaped Adhesive excels in moisture management, preventing maceration and leakage, and allowing for a long wear time of up to 7 days. This reduces the frequency of dressing changes, enhancing patient comfort and convenience.

Indications for Use

This dressing is ideal for moderate to heavily exuding wounds such as:

• Leg ulcers
• Pressure ulcers
• Second-degree burns
• Donor sites
• Post-operative wounds
• Skin abrasions
• Non-infected diabetic foot ulcers

It is also compatible with compression therapy, broadening its applicability in various clinical settings.

Application Guidelines

For optimal results, the dressing should overlap the wound margin by 1-2 cm and be changed based on exudate levels or after up to 7 days. It is not suitable for use with oxidizing solutions and should be avoided by patients sensitive to its components.

Available Sizes

Biatain Shaped Adhesive comes in a range of standard sizes from 10cm x 10cm to 25cm x 25cm, along with specially shaped versions for the heel and sacral areas. This variety ensures a suitable option for different wound locations and sizes.

Additional Features

The dressing is designed for easy and aseptic application, featuring a 3-piece non-touch opening system. When sealed effectively, it remains waterproof, further protecting the wound and reducing the need for frequent changes. This thoughtful design aims to improve patient outcomes and comfort across both chronic and acute wound scenarios.
