Cutimed Cuticell Contact, Wound Contact Layer, 7.5 x 10 cm

Sterile, silicone-coated primary dressing — adheres to the surrounding skin, not to the moist wound.

Description

Cuticell Contact is a sterile primary dressing for wounds with mild to heavy exudate. The principle of Siltec technology: The dressing adheres to the dry surrounding tissue, not to the moist wound itself.

Wound exudate passes unimpeded through the silicone-coated dressing into the secondary dressing, while preventing the secondary dressing from adhering to the wound. The secondary dressing can therefore be changed at any time without traumatizing the wound. Its transparency allows for wound inspection without having to remove anything. Cuticell Contact consists of a thin, transparent, elastic polyurethane film coated on one side with soft silicone.
