Primapore Adhesive Dressing

Smith + Nephew’s Primapore is without a doubt one of the best dressings on the market today. A conformable adhesive dressing consisting of a breathable non-woven top layer and a low-adherent absorbent pad.

The adhesive wound dressings were created with the patient and the user in mind. The dressing is extremely soft and conformable, making it quite easy to use while also shielding the wound from further stress.

Features and Benefits

Conformable
The dressing is soft and conformable, so the patient feels comfortable. When worn, the flexible non-woven covering does not obstruct bodily movements and assists in conformability to all wound sites.

Highly absorbent pad
The dressing is constructed of a highly absorbent pad that allows blood and exudate to pass through while reducing the possibility of fluid strikethrough.

Low adherent wound contact layer
The dressing pad features a low adherent wound contact layer, which helps to minimise disturbance or stress to the underlying tissue during dressing removal, lowering the risk of discomfort.

Rounded corners
The dressing has rounded corners, which may help to lessen the risk of the dressing lifting or snagging, reducing the frequency of dressing changes by maintaining the dressing in good condition.

Easy to apply
The split across the breadth of the protector paper allows for rapid application without the danger of contacting the absorbent pad or sticky region with fingers or forceps. The clean dressing procedure is made easier by the readily opened box.

Low allergy adhesive
Low allergy acrylic adhesive is uniformly applied onto the dressing’s non-woven backing layer, giving safe and stable fixation over the wound site.

In addition, Primapore dressings combine an absorbent pad with a soft and conformable fixative layer for the simple and effective management of sutured wounds.
