The adhesive type or border is a key consideration as it affects the dressing’s ability to stay securely in place without causing skin irritation or trauma during removal. Some foam dressings feature gentle, silicone-based adhesives for sensitive skin, while others offer secure borders for high-movement areas. Products like the Mepilex Border Sacrum Wound Dressing use Safetac® technology to ensure less pain and trauma upon removal, making them ideal for frequent dressing changes. The Hydrofera Blue Ready-Transfer Foam Dressing is also designed to be easy to apply and remove. With various adhesive types and border designs available, you can select the best option for your patient’s skin sensitivity and wound location.
