Sterile, soft , silicone adhesive wound dressing
Spycra Protect is a soft, one-sided silicone adhesive dressing. Spycra Protect is a bi-elastic dressing; elastic in both directions - in the length and in the width -, can be repositioned and has rounded edges to stay better in place. The bi-elasticity diminishes the effects of friction preventing the appearance of skin lesions in case of fragile skin (prevention of skin tears, scratch wounds,…)or in case of skin@risk (prevention of blistering when walking, running, ….) The wide scaled pore structure of the dressing allows the dressing to breath and supports an optimal wound healing process based on the principle of moist wound healing. Top layer of lycra fibers, giving the dressing a silken-like look. Does not absorb..
ONE SIDED, SILICONE ADHESIVE
Features
No pain and trauma/secondary skin lesions ( loss of epidermis )when changing the dressing.
Dressing can be re-positioned allowing safe and easy wound inspection during care process.
No adhesive residue on the skin after removal of the dressing.
Minimal risk for skin irritation or allergy.
Perfect sealing of wound edges; no risk for maceration of surrounding skin.
Benefits
Painless dressing changes; increased patient comfort.
Easy application.
Easy removal of the dressing; less time spending.
No risk for maceration wound edges; the surrounding skin stays dry and healthy.
Minimal dressing changes; minimal risk for damaging newly formed tissues.

increased risk of infection.
Support of fragile skin.
Spycra Protect can be used preventively as a protective layer when applied on ‘skin at risk’ to support fragile skin. The bi-elastic properties of the dressing protect the fragile skin tissues minimizing the risk of skin tears.
Spycra Protect can also be used to minimize the friction and shearing forces among E.B patients, bedridden patients and wheelchair and prostheses users
Care of superficial non-to-low exuding wounds.
Spycra Protect can be used on different superficial non-to-low exuding wounds such as: skin tears, scratch injuries, surgical incisions, partial thickness burns, blisters, shearing injuries, abrasions, intertrigo and eczema.
