Features

Unique 3D foam structure for superior absorption:
- When in contact with exudate the unique 3D foam structure of Biatain conforms closely to the wound bed even under compression.
Minimal maceration and leakage:
- The superior absorption and retention of exudate minimize risk of maceration and leakage. This adhesive dressing is well suited for use on wounds with healthy peri-ulcer skin and in areas with a need for extra adhesion.
Long wear time:
- Due to the superior absorption capacity of Biatain the dressing has a long wear time. Clinical studies have shown a wear time up to 7 days.
Soft and flexible dressing:
-Biatain Adhesive is a soft and flexible dressing that is very comfortable to wear.
Mode of action:
- The unique 3D foam structure absorbs the exudate vertically and locks the fluid away from its structure, still leaving the wound moist providing optimal moist wound healing conditions.
Composition:
- Biatain Adhesive is a soft and conformable polyurethane foam dressing with a skin friendly hydrocolloid adhesive border
The dressing may be used throughout the healing process to provide padding and protection for all types of wounds and are well-suited for use under a compression device
Importance of Absorption and Retention
-Exudate absorption is essential to wound healing. Too much exudate can delay healing or cause maceration of the healthy peri-wound skin
- Exudate absorption is essential to wound healing. Too much exudate can delay healing or cause maceration of the healthy peri-wound skin
Indications:
-Low to highly exudating wounds
- Leg ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
- Chronic wounds
-Skin tears
- Superficial and partial thickness burns
- Donor sites
- Postoperative wounds
- Skin abrasions

More Information

Contraindications:
Biatain Adhesive dressings are not recommended for use with oxidizing solutions e.g. hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide and should not be applied to patients who are known to be sensitive to one of the components
How to Use:
If clinically indicated, the wound should be cleansed in accordance with normal practice and the surrounding skin thoroughly dried before application of the adhesive sheet. A dressing should be selected that provides 1-2 cm overlap around the wound margin to ensure good adhesion. Using the 'non-touch' applicators to ensure sterile application, locate the foam pad over the wound and remove the backing films one at a time whilst smoothing the dressing onto the skin
Frequency of Change:
The frequency of dressing changes will be governed by the state of the wound. On clean epithelializing wounds the dressing may be left in place for up to seven days, but on more heavily exuding wounds more frequent changes may be required. It is recommended that the dressing be changed when the exudate approaches 2 cm from the margin
Warnings:
Wounds on patients dressed with Biatain Adhesive with local and systemic infections and/or wounds caused by arterial insufficiency or diabetes, primarily on the lower leg or foot, should be inspected by a healthcare professional on a daily basis. In the event of an allergic reaction, the manufacturer should be contacted for information on dressing components
Precautions:
Biatain Adhesive is presented individually wrapped in a peel pouch, sterilized by beta irradiation. The dressings are available in the form of squares for routine use, with specially designed shaped versions available for dressing sacral, heel and difficult to dress areas
