Would you like to order OPSITE Post-OP island plaster 30 x 10 cm 20 pieces?
The OPSITE Post-OP Island Plaster from Smith & Nephew offers the perfect combination of protection and comfort for post-operative and minor daily wounds. This sterile plaster consists of a waterproof, breathable film with a highly absorbent, non-adherent wound pad. Ideal for protecting your wound while still being able to shower, thanks to the waterproof properties of the "Reactic" film.
The film is designed to wick away moisture and protect the wound from bacteria and contamination, significantly reducing the risk of infection. The absorbent wound pad quickly draws in wound fluid and distributes it evenly over the plaster, minimizing the risk of skin maceration. In addition, the non-stick structure ensures that the wound pad does not cause pain when removed.
Thanks to the hypoallergenic adhesive layer, the risk of allergic reactions is very small, and the rounded corners of the patch prevent rolling up or coming loose. This makes the patch particularly suitable for use on moving parts of the body, because it adapts smoothly to the body contours.
This Smith & Nephew plaster is easy to apply and provides long-lasting protection without discomfort, ideal for your wound care after surgery or for minor injuries.
What are the benefits of OPSITE Post-OP island plaster?
The OPSITE Post-OP island plaster offers several advantages that contribute to optimal wound care and comfortable recovery. Read below why this transparent island plaster is the right choice for your wound care:
- Waterproof and breathable : The OPSITE Post-OP plaster is completely waterproof, so you can shower without worries while the wound remains protected. At the same time, the "Reactic" film allows air and moisture to evaporate, allowing the skin to breathe and reducing the risk of maceration.
- High moisture permeability : The "Reactic" film reacts to the presence of wound fluid and becomes more permeable when moisture is present. This allows excess moisture to evaporate effectively, maintaining a healthy wound environment.
- Non-adherent absorbent wound pad : The wound pad of the plaster quickly absorbs exudate (wound fluid) and distributes it evenly over the pad. This prevents fluid build-up and minimizes the risk of maceration. In addition, the wound pad does not stick to the wound, which reduces trauma when changing the plaster.
- Protects against bacteria and contaminants : The island plaster provides an effective barrier against bacteria and external contaminants, reducing the risk of infection. This makes the dressing ideal for post-operative wounds and daily wound care.
- Hypoallergenic adhesive : The special hypoallergenic adhesive ensures that the patch is gentle on the skin and minimizes the risk of allergic reactions. This makes the patch suitable for patients with sensitive skin.
- Flexible and comfortable : The rounded corners and flexible design allow the plaster to easily adapt to the contours of the body, ensuring it stays in place comfortably, even on moving parts of the body. The rounded corners also help prevent the plaster from rolling up or coming loose, ensuring it stays in place for longer.
- Easy to apply : The simple application system of the OPSITE Post-OP Island Plaster makes it easy to apply the plaster quickly and accurately to the wound, even in hard-to-reach areas.
For which wounds do I use OPSITE Post-OP Island Plaster?
The OPSITE Post-OP Island Plaster is a versatile dressing suitable for various types of wounds, both for post-operative care and for everyday wound care. Below are some common applications:
- Post-operative wounds : This island plaster is ideal for protecting surgical wounds. It keeps the wound moist and offers protection against bacteria and infection.
- Everyday wounds : For minor cuts, tears (lacerations) and superficial abrasions, the OPSITE Post-OP plaster provides effective protection and promotes faster healing.
- Minor burns : The plaster can also be used for minor, superficial burns. The protective wound pad helps to absorb wound fluid and keep the skin clean.
