The Allevyn Sacrum Dressing is a uniquely crafted adhesive hydrocellular foam sacrum dressing. Developed by Smith & Nephew, it's shaped to flawlessly fit the sacral area, ensuring enhanced management of pressure sores. This bed sore patch is designed with a low allergy adhesive that adheres strongly to intact skin but not to wounds, reducing the risk of skin irritation. The Allevyn patch is highly absorbent, with a hydrocellular core that can hold liquid in its microscopic structure, allowing it to stay in place for up to five days. The outer layer of the Allevyn sacrum patch is both bacteria-proof and waterproof, contributing to an overall environment conducive to effective wound healing. Allevyn patch for bed sores employs a unique trilaminate construction and tapered edges that prevent any accidental removal, providing comfort and added protection.
Q1. How often do I need to change the Allevyn sacrum patch?
Ans: The Allevyn sacrum patch can stay in place for up to 5 days. However, you may need to change it earlier if it becomes saturated with wound exudate.
Q2. Can I use the Allevyn patch on other parts of the body apart from the sacral area?
Ans: While the Allevyn sacrum patch is tailored for the sacral area, there are other versions of Allevyn dressings designed for different parts of the body. These variations offer specialised shapes and sizes to accommodate various wound locations, providing effective coverage and management.
Q3. Can I use Allevyn bed sore patch on open wounds?
Ans: No, the Allevyn bed sore patch is not suitable for use on open wounds as it is designed specifically for the sacral area. For open wounds, consult a doctor for appropriate wound care products and treatment options.
Q4. Can I cut the Allevyn patch for bed sores to fit a smaller wound?
Ans: Cutting the Allevyn patch for bed sores to fit a smaller wound is not recommended, as altering the patch may compromise its effectiveness and ability to provide optimal wound care.
Q5. Could Allevyn Sacrum patch stick to my bed sores or wounds?
Ans: The Allevyn Sacrum patch is designed with a non-adherent wound contact layer to minimise the risk of sticking to bed sores or wounds. It's essential to follow proper wound care protocols and consult with a doctor if you encounter any issues with dressing adherence.
