Description

Silotull is a porous, atraumatic wound contact layer. The silicone coating is slightly tacky, which facilitates the application and retention of the dressing to the skin surrounding the wound. This gentle adhesion also tends to prevent maceration by inhibiting the lateral movement of exudate from the wound on to the surrounding skin. Soft Silicone ensures removal of the dressing without pain or trauma to the delicate new tissues. Silotull is not absorbent, but contains apertures or pores that allow the passage of exudate into a secondary absorbent dressing.

Intended Use:
Silotull® is used for management of wounds where adherence to the underlying tissues should be avoided. Typical applications include skin tears or abrasions, surgical excisions, first and second degree burns, blistering conditions, lacerations, partial and full thickness grafts, leg and pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, venous and arterial ulcers and skin damage following radiotherapy or steroid therapy.
