Eclypse - Super Absorbent Dressing
Eclypse is a highly absorbent, high capacity wound exudate management product designed to absorb fluid, reduce potential leaks and reduce risk of maceration. The dressing has a rapid wicking face combined with the highly absorbent moisture locking system. The absorbent layer provides a large capacity with rapid fluid uptake forming a gel when in contact with exudate. The backing is a water resistant barrier film to prevent strike-through with a high moisture vapour transfer rate prolonging wear ability.
Use
Eclypse is placed white face down on wound surface with beige backing uppermost.
Wear time will depend on the level of exudate but Eclypse can be left in place for up to seven days. Eclypse can be used under compression therapy.
Eclypse has very similar technology to nappies, the dressing will expand with exudate, that`s a great sign the dressing needs to be changed - the patient may notice it`s become a little heavy.
