Askina® DresSil Active
Adhesive flex silicone multilayer dressing with border
 

Askina® DresSil Active is a multilayer silicone dressing with border designed to provide active exudate management. 
Its multilayer structure improves exudate retention and absorption while maintaining the adequate moisture level in the wound1. This may reduce the frequency of dressing changes, thereby saving nursing time and allowing more time to be dedicated to patients and their care2. 

 

Askina® DresSil Active is designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as:

  • Pressure ulcers
  • Leg and foot ulcers
  • Traumatic wounds (e.g. skin tears)
  • Surgical wounds

 

It can also be used on dry/necrotic wounds in combination with gels. The dressing may also be used as part of a prophylactic therapy to help prevent skin damage, e.g. pressure ulcers.
