Product Info
ESPUMA® Gentle Lite Comfort Flex differs from the previous variant in having slits formed for greater flexibility and conformability than other dressings
• Comfortable: as the dressing is easy to remove and minimize trauma during dressing changes.
• Cushioning effect: as it acts as a barrier against irritation and constant pressure on the skin.
• Breathable: the semi-permeable backing allows moisture to escape.
• Prevents skin maceration: as the perforated silicone film allows free passage of wound exudate to the foam.
• Additional carbon layer in some variants: adsorbs offensive odour in case of malodorous wounds.
• Additional superabsorbent layer in some variants: increases the absorp tion capacity of the dressing for highly exuding wounds.
ESPUMA® Gentle Family is an effective tool for moist wound healing, having high capacity of autolytic debridement and it is particularly
useful in preventing dressing-related trauma especially in people with fragile skin. It’s indicated for a wide range of exuding wounds as:
pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, skin graft, first and second degree burns. Can be used in combination with compression
therapy.
The Lite variants are indicated for low exuding and traumatic wounds as: abrasions, blisters and skin tears.
The variants containing carbon are for malodorous acute and chronic wounds as carbon adsorb offensive odor.

Product Info
DescriptionESPUMA®Gentle Comfort is absorbent, polyurethane foam laminated with perforated soft silicone gel wound contact layer which extends beyond the perimeter of foam to allow easy fixation without adhesive tapes or fixation dressing and provide atraumatic dressing removal. The outermost layer of the dressing is polyurethane non-woven bilaminate which is waterproof, bacteria proof and virus proof.
Features- Gentle soft Silicone gel allows atraumatic dressing removal.
- Pattern coated silicone or perforated silicone film, allow free passage of wound exudate to the foam so prevents skin maceration.
- High absorption capacity polyurethane foam also provides a cushioning effect.
- Highly breathable top sheet allows evaporation of absorbed exudates, thus it enhances fluid handling capacity of the dressing.
- Being waterproof, the top sheet prevents strike through and allows showering while the dressing is in place.
IndicationsESPUMA®Gentle Comfort is suitable for dressing many types of exuding wounds including leg and pressure ulcers, surgical incisions and traumatic wounds resulting in skin loss, also may be used under compression bandaging.
ContraindicationsDo not use ESPUMA®Gentle Comfort dressings with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions or hydrogen peroxide, as these can break down the absorbent polyurethane component of the dressing.
PrecautionIn case of infection, ESPUMA®Gentle Comfort still can be used but under medical supervision and with antimicrobial conjunctive therapy.
Frequency of ChangeThe interval between dressing changes will normally be determined by the degree of exudate produced but the dressing may be left undisturbed for several days on clean lightly exuding wounds.
How suppliedESPUMA®Gentle Comfort is supplied individually wrapped in heat sealable package, sterilized by ethylene oxide.
