Foam Dressing

Foam dressings are soft, absorbent wound dressings for wounds with moderate to heavy exudate. They cushion the wound, lock away fluid, and help maintain a moist healing environment. EMIS+ stocks bordered and non-bordered foam dressings in Singapore from leading brands.

When foam dressings are used

Foam suits pressure injuries, leg ulcers, and other moderate-to-heavily exuding wounds. Bordered (adhesive) foam holds in place on intact skin; non-bordered foam is secured with a retention dressing and is gentler for fragile skin.

How long can a foam dressing stay on? Depending on exudate, many foam dressings can remain in place for up to several days — change when strike-through appears or per clinical advice.
