Use and application tips

ZeniFOAM Ag GENTLE BORDER is a silver silicone faced foam dressing with border used to provide absorption of moderate to heavy wound drainage. The dressing is composed of multiple layers to provide superior absorption. The outer protective backing is waterproof, bacterial proof, and smooth. The super absorbent core contains fibers for exceptional absorption capability to help minimize the risk of maceration. The non-woven layer spreads drainage to a wide surface to enhance absorption performance. The silver foam layer provides broad spectrum antimicrobial effects and offers additional comfort and cushioning protection. The silicone wound contact layer is perforated and nonadherent to fragile and sensitive skin allowing pain free dressing removal. The sticky side of the dressing is the silicone contact layer and it should be placed touching the wound. Please note: Silicone is naturally sticky to the touch; however, when in contact with wound drainage, the silicone is non-adherent to the wound. Unlike traditional glue adhesives, ZeniFOAM Ag GENTLE BORDER is gentle and easy to remove from the skin around the wound. The colored backing on ZeniFOAM Ag GENTLE BORDER is waterproof to prevent drainage from striking through the dressing and to provide protection from external contaminates. Replace ZeniFOAM Ag GENTLE BORDER when drainage is visible to the edge of the foam pad, if the dressing leaks, or as instructed by your medical provider.
