ALLEVYN Life Foam Sacrum Dressing, Sterile, 6-3/4" x 6-7/8"

Smith & Nephew's new Allevyn™ Life is a multi-purpose, foam dressing that features a wide border for a secure, human-shaped fit. Allevyn™ Life is ideal for exuding wounds and pressure ulcers.

It is easy to apply and remove, and can be repositioned without loss of adherence. The sacrum dressings can be worn up to 5 days and up to 7 days for other wound locations (depending on the wound and exudate level).
