Unbiased information for educational purposes only. WoundReference does not produce, market, advertise, re-sell or distribute healthcare goods or services consumed by, or used on patients. For information about specific products, please contact the manufacturer directly.

ALLEVYN Adhesive is a foam wound dressing.
INTENDED USES: indicated for exudate absorption and the management of partial- to full-thickness wounds. Some typical wounds are: ulcers (venous, arterial, diabetic, pressure), donor sites, surgical incisions, surgical excisions and burns (first- and second-degree).
CLAIMED FEATURES: With its triple layer formation, this product was designed with this combination to ensure optimal fluid handling to support moist wound healing. ALLEVYN Adhesive is a dressing specifically designed to manage chronic or acute exuding wounds. The triple action technology helps to maintain an optimal balance in fluid creating a moist wound environment for healing. The low allergy adhesive helps to keep the dressing securely in place without adhering to the wound. The breathable top film helps to minimize the risk of maceration to the wound and peri-wound. Provides an effective barrier function to exogenous bacteria as well as helping to prevent fluid and bacterial strikethrough. Easy to apply and remove. Conforms to body contours. Available in a wide range of sizes which can be cut to fit areas such as elbows and heels. Sacral sizes available.
OPTIONS: 3’’ x 3’’/7.5cm x 7.5cm, 10/carton

Manufacturer: Smith & Nephew, Inc.
