3M™ V.A.C.® Granufoam™ Dressing Kit, M8275053/5, Large, 5/CS
About the product
Designed to adapt to irregular wound contours, V.A.C. Granufoam Dressings are ideal for a range of chronic, acute and sub-acute wounds. The reticulated open pores in the black polyurethane foam help to evenly distribute negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) across the wound bed, promoting tissue granulation formation and perfusion, while the hydrophobic properties enhance exudate removal.
Product details
Provide efficient and effective wound care for your patients with the help of V.A.C. Granufoam™ Dressings. These advanced wound dressings promote granulation tissue formation while enhancing exudate removal. Plus, you can trim the dressings to fit the unique contours of deep or irregular wounds, tailoring them to meet each patient’s individual needs. When you need a customizable solution for bridging techniques while treating multiple wounds, you can turn to V.A.C. Granufoam™ Dressings to help you deliver the comprehensive care your patients deserve. Featuring a hydrophobic polyurethane ether foam with a pore size of 400-600 microns, these dressings help to evenly distribute negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) across the wound bed and remove exudate and infectious material.
Only V.A.C.® Therapy provides:
Featuring our proprietary SensaT.R.A.C.™ Technology — a real-time pressure feedback system that adjusts the unit output to accommodate vertical distances, exudate amount and viscosity, and patient positions — V.A.C.® Therapy helps you optimize healing by responding to your specific patient care needs.
