Description

Hypafix, a brand by BSN Medical, offers versatile and reliable dressing solutions with its HYPAFIX Dressings. These dressings are crafted from a flexible, non-woven fabric that is both self-adhesive and highly conformable, making them ideal for securing wound dressings, medical devices, tubes, and catheters. Their design allows them to contour seamlessly around joints and other challenging body areas without restricting movement or blood flow.

Key Features

• Breathability: HYPAFIX Dressings are permeable to air and water vapor, promoting skin health by reducing the risk of maceration.
• Radiotransparency: These dressings do not need to be removed during X-ray or radiotherapy, offering convenience in medical settings.
• Skin-Friendly Adhesive: The hypoallergenic, latex-free adhesive is gentle on sensitive skin, minimizing irritation.

Variants

The product line includes a transparent polyurethane film variant, HYPAFIX Transparent, which is waterproof and acts as a bacterial barrier. This variant allows for visual inspection of the wound while maintaining secure fixation.

Application

HYPAFIX Dressings can be easily trimmed to the desired size and applied using a quick-release backing paper. Some variants feature a split liner for even simpler application. Their chemically inert nature makes them safe for use with rubber and plastics, ensuring compatibility with various medical devices.

Available Sizes

• Standard HYPAFIX: Ranges from 2.5 cm x 10 m to 30 cm x 10 m.
• HYPAFIX Transparent: Available in sizes such as 5 cm x 10 m and 10 cm x 10 m.

Usage Instructions

To apply, cut the dressing to the required size, remove the backing, and place it centrally over the area. Smooth out for even adhesion. For removal, soaking with oil or water can help minimize discomfort.

Precautions

• Avoid use on infected wounds or with known allergies to acrylic adhesives.
• Do not apply under tension to prevent skin damage.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme conditions.

Maintenance

Dressing changes are typically recommended every 5–7 days, depending on the wound condition. Proper care during removal and cleaning of the area ensures optimal results.

HYPAFIX Dressings provide a dependable solution for medical professionals and patients alike, offering secure, comfortable, and adaptable wound care management.
