Despite advances in wound dressing technology, confusion in appropriate dressing selection for wounds in different stages of healing continues. Further complicating matters are efforts to simplify the wound dressing formulary, with a focus on having products available that can multitask.

Soft silicone multi-layer foam dressings provide a solution for both skin protection and wound treatment. Explore the science and benefits of a new portfolio of multi-layer foam wound dressings that meet clinician needs across the trajectory of wounds, from protection against pressure injury to treatment of wounds.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Explain moist wound healing principles, including the implications of dressing choice.
  2. Explore the use of soft silicone multi-layer foam dressings for both protection against skin breakdown and treatment of wounds.
  3. Describe the physical performance characteristics of ConvaFoam™, a new portfolio of foam dressings, in skin protection and wound treatment.
  4. Review patient case presentations illustrating clinical outcomes with ConvaFoam™.
