Technology
We conducted over 50 hours of in-depth interviews and observational sessions with patients and involved over 850 clinicians from around the world.
From this research we now know that complete wound care means far more than just physical healing, particularly to patients living with their wounds 24/7:
- Leakage, visible strikethrough and odour can be embarrassing and stigmatising
- Poor cushioning from knocks and bumps can cause fear and pain
- Dressings that dont stay in place and fall off are highly frustrating
- Frequent dressing changes and slow wound healing cause anxiety
This inspired the development of ALLEVYN Life which is a multi-layered dressing incorporating hydrocellular foam, hyper-absorber lock away core and masking layer designed specifically for people and their everyday life.
Mode of Action
Discretion Layer for Patient Confidence
The masking layer minimises the visual impact of strikethrough, providing the patient with confidence that their dressing may not attract the negative attention of others.
The masking layer acts as a change indicator which optimises dressing change frequency and minimises wastage. Lock-away Layer Providing Patient Peace of Mind
In addition to its hydrocellular foam layer, ALLEVYN Life has a hyper-absorber lock away core providing excellent fluid locking under pressure(in-vitro), absorbs common wound odours when tested (in-vitro) on representative compounds and provides the patient with peace of mind leakage prevention, (in-vitro).
Cushioning Layer for Maximum Protection
ALLEVYN Lifes multi-layered design (hydrocellular foam, hyper-absorber lock away core and masking layer) provides cushioning and helps to spread pressure (in-vitro) so the patients can feel comforted that they are cushioned against everyday trauma.
