Abstract:
The use of silicone-based dressings as a primary contact layer for wound care can prevent epithelial stripping, pain and sensitivity and have been widely available for nearly 20 years. Cuticell Contact from BSN medical is the latest silicone-based dressing to add to the armoury of the wound care clinician. Using documented case studies the author explores the reasoning behind why clinicians should consider re-examining the use of silicone dressings.
