Cutimed Siltec a Technologically Advanced Dressing

The Cutimed Siltec range of foam dressings have been especially developed to facilitate exudate management.  The silicone wound contact layer allows gentle adherence to the wound bed and surrounding skin with minimum discomfort during dressing change.  Newly formed tissue enjoys optimal protection under a moist wound environment.

In addiiton,  there is a layer of super-absorbers above the foam core which ensures reliable absorption in moderate to heavily exuding wounds.  The foam has excellent fluid retention capacity, even under compression.

Product Benefits

• Pain-free and atruamatic dressing changes - The perforated silicone wound contact layer ensures gentle adherence to peri-wound skin.
• New tissue protection - The evenly perforated silicone layer protects the new, fragile layer of epidermal cells which contribute to wound healing.
• Reliable fluid retention - Super-absorbent particles above the foam core not only absorb a significant volume of fluid, they continue to reliably bind exudate even under compression.  The polyurethane film has an excellent MVTR, but prevents strike through from wound exudate.
• Minimal risk of maceration - Vertical absorption through the polyurethane foam and the silicone wound contact layer minimises the risk of maceration of the peri-wound skin.

Indications for Use

• Venous leg ulcer
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Arterial ulcers
• Pressure ulcers
• Skin grafts
• Any moderate to heavy exuding wound regardless of aeitology
