Advazorb Silfix - Absorbent Foam Dressing with Soft Silicone Wound Contact Layer
Advazorb Silfix - Absorbent Foam Dressing with Soft Silicone Wound Contact Layer
Suitable for moderate/low exudate levels
Product Description
Advazorb Silfix combines the excellent fluid handling capabilities of Advazorb with a layer of atraumatic soft silicone adhesive, enabling the dressing to be placed onto the patient whilst a secondary dressing or bandage is applied for retention. Ideally this range is for wounds with low to medium levels of exudate.
The soft silicone ensures that the dressing does not stick to the wet surface of a wound bed or cause trauma to new tissue upon dressing removal. This is particularly suited to those patients with friable or delicate skin and an ideal choice for sensitive wounds as repeated dressing applications will not cause epithelial skin stripping.

- Ensure the area has been cleaned
- Gently dry the surrounding skin
- Remove clear liners
- Apply Advazorb Silfix directly to the wound surface pink film side up
- Ensure a minimum overlap of 2cm around the edges of the wound
