10 Pack Wound Dressing Sacrum Foam Bandages Silicone Adhesive Border 7"x7" Waterproof Sacral Pads Absorbent Breathable Bed Sore Pressure Dressing

Some cuts or sores you can cover with a Babd-Aid, some large ones might need gauze or a Telfa pad to protect the site. But for some open wounds and ulcers, a special type of dressing is required to soak up the liquids, or exudate. Dimora offers a specific line of dressings just for this purpose. I will add a few photos of a lower leg ucler common with diabetics and people who suffer from swelling of the extremeties called lymphadema. I first tried gauze dressings but they stuck to the wound and made things worse when I peeled them off. Even Telfa pads, which claim to be non-stick, were less than ideal plus didn't help soak up fluids commonly found in stasis ulcers. Fortunately I found Silicone Foam Dressingss made by Dimora that helped with might otherwise might be months or years of healing time for stasis ulcers. They come in several sizes including 6, 4 and 3 inch squares. I settled on the 4" as being the right size for my particular needs. The 3 and 4 inch dressings offer a choice of with or without a thinner adhesive border. Each has good sticking power, but I chose to anchor each side with tape then wrap the whole thing in an Ace wrap for greater protection. Since the Dimora Silicone Foam Dressing with Border Adhesive has a cushiony, sterile center it offer great protection against germs and accidental bumps and feels cooling going on. The outer layer is somehow air-permeable while the dressing itself is considered a waterproof barrier. The dressings may be left on up to 2 days, but in the beginning I chose to chane them twice a day. They peel off very easily without damaging surrounding sjkin or the fragile wound area itself. In the first stage of healing you will first see a whitish-yellow surface called slough. This is dead skin cells and fluids seeping out of the damaged area. Unfortunately, such ulcers cannot heal properly with this layer and must be removed. Debriding can be done manually with a clean cloth and warm water but it is far less painful to let the silicone foam pads do the work. As the healing continues you see more pinkish red granulation tissue and finally, no more open areas at all. If you purchase the Dimora dressings without borders you can cut them to size, say 2" x 4" or 1" squares, for greater value if that fits your needs. Tip: the dressings with borders have a smaller usable foam space, about 2" for the 4" since each borders measures about 1/2". The dressings are protected by peel off covering, like the backs of Band-Aids. I highly recommend these as a top quality product with easy application and removal. I could have used them back in the day I had a deep (full thickness) second degree burn for which they are also recommended.

Perfect! They are not as big as I would've liked, but it gets the job done and is of good quality. Sticks great and at an affordable price. Will be ordering again. However; box was sent to me all squashed and torn, but I needed them really bad so I didn't return them.

The dressing adheres exceptionally well to the skin. I was able to remove and recover the injury with the bandages if it was placed incorrectly. They hold up well and have a strong grip. They are large, allowing for customization of the dressing to your preference. It does absorb well, eliminating the need for frequent changes unless necessary. I would recommend them.

I go through three of these dressings per day on my elderly father. For the past year I’ve used sacrum dressings from numerous manufacturers and these are by far the best quality, easiest to work with and most affordable.

Used to treat a sacral bedsore on my 91yr old mother. Worked great !

I got turned onto these by a nurse friend of mine who specializes in wound care. I had a pretty gross wound that I had to be careful not to go gangrene had to keep it dry and clean. These bandages really helped me do exactly that they don't stick to open wounds or even scabs yet they do. If that makes any sense. They will lay on the wound but they come off without taking anything with it. They're amazing. They also absorb any moisture and fluids etc. I cut mine in half. I use them for my big toe so I get two uses out of them. Along with paper tape to close the edge after cutting to the right size. These are great! If you have to put them over a wound and don't have to cut them, you'll be very happy too. I can't recommend enough. These are great. They might be a little expensive but I will always keep them in my medicine cabinet from now on.

Really good product. It does stick to the skin without damaging it. Provides cushioning. My mom who is 94, doesn’t feel she has it on. It does not itch, and if you place it accordingly it never gets dirty or wet.

Excellent fit and consistent performance. I have tried other brands that may have been cheaper, but none ever worked as well.

great product and delivery was on time

Good quality dressing. Both adhered and absorbed as required. Would not cope with heavy wound discharge. Did not cause reaction on highly sensitive skin which was a major positive.
