Abstract:
:This prospective, non comparative study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of an adhesive gelling foam dressing in pressure ulcer management. Twenty-three subjects with exuding pressure ulcers were recruited from seven centres in the USA and Canada. Study treatment included an adhesive gelling foam dressing, optional tape/roll bandaging and mandatory pressure-reducing/relieving devices. Subjects were followed until ulcer healing, for up to 28 days, or on patient withdrawal from the study, whichever came first. Dressings were changed at least once every 7 days. Mean percentage change in ulcer area from baseline to final measurement was -13%. Investigators reported healing or subjective improvement of ulcer condition in 61% of patients. Mean dressing wear time was 4.2 days. Subjects found the dressing was comfortable, soothing and cushioning in situ at 80%, 64% and 70% of dressing changes, respectively. Subjects reported pain severity of none or mild for every dressing change. Fourteen subjects experienced adverse events, including seven subjects with study-related maceration, erythema, wound enlargement, blister or infection. A regimen including an adhesive gelling foam dressing proved to be safe and effective for managing exudate, protecting the surrounding skin, minimising pain and supporting healing of pressure ulcers with exudate.
