U-Net® Groin Wound Dressing |
The U-Net® is a dressing used to support and hold surgical dressings in place in the perineal, scrotal, coccygeal, anal or vulval area of the patient. These areas have traditionally been very difficult to dress. The U-Net® dressing comprises a panel and waist band. The panel is a length of material universally shaped to fit both a male and females from the anterior to the posterior waist positions. The panel is a mesh material suitable for medical use. The purpose of is the mesh material is to provide visibility when inspecting any dressings placed between the panel and the patient, ventilation and be quick drying. The mesh material is detachable from the waist band and is easy to apply even to unconscious patients. The dressing is easy to apply to the unconscious patient due to detachable pieces. The dressing can easily be slid or passed under the patient with minimal disturbance. Although the dressing comes in a range of sizes, the design of the dressing provides an additional degree of flexibility within those sizes. This ensures a snug fit, better patient comfort and toilet access. It also provides a means of exerting pressure on the wound to control bleeding.Summary of product
