Eclypse® Contour
Super absorbent multisite dressing
The Eclypse® Contour dressing provides a completely new and innovative design to the Eclypse® range, which will uniquely mould to the body contours, ensuring optimum contact with the wound and effective exudate management. It is designed to reduce nursing time and the cost associated with this, as the dressing doesn’t need to be changed as often. Importantly the patient trauma associated with a high frequency of change is reduced.
The size and shape of the Eclypse® Contour has been specifically designed to treat highly exuding wounds in difficult to dress areas, such as the underarm, abdomen, back, lower leg and thigh.
Use
Place white face down on the wound surface, with beige backing uppermost. For larger wounds place several dressings side by side. Protect friable skin, or drier areas of the wound with a nonadherent dressing under Eclypse® Contour. Secure the / dressing pad with tape or bandage appropriately. Eclypse® Contour may be used under compression bandages. Wear time will depend on the level of exudate, daily changes may be required, but Eclypse® Contour can be left in place for up to 7 days.
Indications
Moderate to heavily exuding wounds: Leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, sloughy or granulating wounds, post-operative or dehisced wounds, fungating wounds, donor site management.
Eclypse® can be used as a Primary dressing on wounds where exudate management is required in a clean wound. Eclypse® can also be used as a Secondary dressing for exudate management where another primary dressing has been applied for treatment of the wound bed e.g. Collagen, Manuka Honey or Alginate.
Contra-indications
Do not use on arterial bleeds or heavily bleeding wounds.
