Description
Highly absorbent:
In-vitro studies and clinical experience both demonstrate that as healing progresses, Allevyn dressings can stay in place for up to seven days. This capacity results from a combination of properties: The perforated wound contact layer allows even viscous exudate to pass into the dressing.
- The hydrocellular core of the dressing absorbs and holds liquid in its microscopic structure.
- The breathable outer surface of the dressing allows excess moisture to evaporate away from the dressing.
Promotes early healing:
Allevyn Heel Foam Dressing allows the formation and maintenance of a moist wound healing environment at the wound surface, preventing eschar formation and promoting rapid and trouble-free healing.
Designed to fit the heel:
Allevyn Heel Foam Dressing is designed to gently fit around the back of the foot, allowing the wound to be dressed, creating a moist wound healing environment.
Cushioned comfort:
Allevyn Heel dressings are soft and cushioning, giving excellent patient comfort and protection.
Clean wound healing:
Allevyn Heel absorbs and retains exudate, bacteria, and cellular debris, providing clean, mess-free dressing changes.

Contraindication:
- Do not use Allevyn dressings with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions (e.g., Eusol) or hydrogen peroxide solutions, as these can break down the absorbent hydrocellular component of the dressing.
- Reddening of the skin around the wound has been reported rarely following the use of Allevyn dressings. In some cases, this relates to irritation of fragile skin; in others, wound exudate remaining in contact with peri-wound skin for prolonged periods may be the cause. Infrequently, cases of sensitivity to the dressing have also been reported. If reddening or sensitisation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional
