Description

Biatain IBU Non-Adhesive by Coloplast is an innovative wound dressing designed to enhance healing while managing pain. Crafted from soft, flexible polyurethane foam, this dressing is infused with ibuprofen at a concentration of 0.5 mg/cm², providing localized pain relief directly at the wound site.

Key Features

• Moist Wound Healing: The dressing maintains a moist environment conducive to healing, with ibuprofen release activated by wound exudate, lasting up to 7 days.
• 3D Foam Structure: Its unique 3D foam structure ensures superior absorption and conforms closely to the wound bed, even under compression.
• Non-Adhesive Design: Ideal for fragile or sensitive skin, the non-adhesive nature of the dressing makes it suitable for areas where adhesive dressings are not appropriate.
• Bevelled Edges: Designed to minimize pressure marks, enhancing comfort for the patient.

Additional Benefits

• Semi-Permeable Film Backing: The waterproof film backing acts as a barrier against bacteria while allowing the skin to breathe.
• Customizable Fit: The dressing can be cut to fit specific wound areas and is effective for wounds up to 2 cm deep.
• Compression Therapy Compatibility: Suitable for use with compression therapy, addressing a wide range of wound types, including acute and chronic wounds.
