Description
Biatain Fiber by Coloplast is an advanced wound dressing designed to effectively manage highly exuding wounds, sloughy wounds, and cavity wounds. Its innovative HexaLock Technology integrates absorbent gelling sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) fibers with bicomponent (BiCo) fibers, providing exceptional strength and integrity through a thermobonded hexagon net structure.
Key Benefits
- Exudate Management: The dressing excels in absorbing and retaining exudate, significantly reducing the risk of maceration, infection, and exudate pooling.
- Cohesive Gel Formation: Upon contact with exudate, Biatain Fiber forms a cohesive gel that conforms closely to the wound bed, maintaining its shape with minimal shrinkage.
- Easy Removal: Designed for easy one-piece removal, it minimizes the risk of leaving residues in the wound.
Design Features
- Conformability: The dressing adapts seamlessly to the wound bed and edges, minimizing gaps and enhancing healing conditions.
- Structural Integrity: The thermobonded net enhances structural integrity, ensuring the dressing remains effective in both dry and gelled states.
- Autolytic Debridement Support: Promotes desloughing and granulation, aiding in the wound healing process.
Versatility
Biatain Fiber is suitable for a wide range of acute and chronic wounds, including:
- Diabetic ulcers
- Leg ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
- Oncology wounds
- Traumatic wounds
- Partial-thickness burns
- Donor sites
- Post-operative surgical wounds
Application
Available in various formats and sizes, including square and ribbon shapes, Biatain Fiber is intended as a primary wound dressing. It should be covered with a suitable secondary dressing and can be left in place for up to seven days or until maximum absorption is reached. Its use is recommended under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
