Coloplast Biatain Heel Silicone Foam Dressing, 18cm x 18cm - 33406

Superior absorption due to unique 3D foam
When in contact with exudate the unique 3D foam structure of Biatain ® Silicone conforms closely to the wound bed for superior absorption - even under compression (3). The unique 3D foam structure absorbs the exudate vertically and together with the lock-away layer it locks away the fluid within its structure, still leaving the wound moist for optimal wound healing conditions. The fluid handling properties of Biatain® Silicone ensure control of exudate thus minimising risk of leakage and maceration.

Gentle and secure fit
The silicone adhesive layer provides a secure fit to keep the dressing in place while ensuring minimal pain upon removal (1,2). The soft and flexible design of Biatain® Silicone ensures a close fit to wound and body, and the foam pad at skin level makes Biatain® Silicone comfortable to wear – even under compression (2).

Intuitive use
Biatain® Silicone has a 3-piece non-touch opening for an easy and aseptic application.

Fewer dressing changes
Due to superior absorption, you can experience up to 50% reduction in dressing changes (3,4).
