Kliniderm Foam Silicone
About Kliniderm Foam Silicone
Kliniderm Foam Silicone is an absorbent polyurethane foam dressing with a soft silicone wound contact layer. This wound contact layer protects the surrounding skin and reduces pain during dressing changes. The absorbent foam layer absorbs and retains exudate. In addition, wound exudate partly evaporates through the dressing, increasing the total absorption capacity. The silicone dressing supports moist wound treatment.
