Description:
Non-Adherent Pads As is well recognized in the art, ideally a wound dressing comprising an absorbent material providing a reservoir for the wound fluids diffusing from the wound should not interfere with normal wound healing. Yet, where the dressing comprises an absorbent pad of a fibrous material such as gauze which is in immediate contact with the wound, the diffusing wound fluid will extend into the interstices and around the fibers of the dressing so that the dressing is eventually adhesively and mechanically anchored into the wound surface, e.g. to graft sites, buds of new tissue forming over the wound or to the scabby protective covering for the wound. Consequently, removal or changing of the dressing can and will cause disruption of the healing process delaying the healing process as well as being a painful procedure for the patient. As an example of such commercial dressings, mention may be made of the TELFA.RTM. adhesive dressings and pads and the TELFA.RTM. adhesive island dressings commercially available. While they are highly efficacious in that they provide the desired protective absorbent dressing while preventing adherence to the wound, they nevertheless tend to cause skin maceration if the dressing is not changed once it becomes saturated with wound fluid. Additionally, the pooling of wound fluid on the wound surface once the dressing becomes saturated tends to diffuse laterally to undermine the adhesive outside the wound area holding the dressing to the skin.
