Tracheostomy Dressings
Tracheopad
Tracheopad is an aluminised non-woven dressing, especially designed for use around tracheotomies, nephrostomies and large calibre drains.
The pre-cut and minor slits radiating from the central hole (Ø from 12 mm to 2O mm) allows a perfect fit around the tracheotomy tube assuring the maximum comfort to the patient.
The excellent quality of the aluminised wound contact layer performs a healing function and it reduces the adherence of the dressing either to the peristome skin or to the tracheotomy tube, minimizing trauma for the patient during the removal.
Furthermore, the high porosity of this layer permits good skin transpiration, allows a rapid absorption of blood and exudates into the dressing and consequently keeps the wound surface dry.
Tracheopad acts as a reliable barrier against bacterial contamination. Tracheopad is latex free.
