Product Overview
The Convatec Aquacel Ribbon (420127) is a hydrofiber dressing designed for effective wound management. Its unique ribbon shape (0.39 x 18 inches) allows for precise application in narrow or deep wounds, including cavities, sinuses, and tunneling wounds. The dressing absorbs wound exudate and forms a soft gel, maintaining a moist environment to promote healing while reducing the risk of maceration.
Key Features:
- Made from sodium carboxymethylcellulose hydrofiber for superior absorption
- Conforms to wound contours for optimal contact
- Helps manage exudate and minimize bacterial contamination
- Non-adherent gel formation reduces trauma during removal
- Suitable for partial- and full-thickness wounds
Specifications:
- Dimensions: 0.39 x 18 inches (1 x 45 cm)
- Sterile, single-use dressing
- Latex-free and non-medicated
- Compatible with secondary dressings
Suggested Use:
Ideal for packing deep or irregular wounds, the Aquacel Ribbon should be lightly pressed into the wound cavity, ensuring full contact without overpacking. Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing. Change as needed based on exudate levels or as directed by a healthcare professional.
