Hydrocellular Adhesive Sacrum Dressing

ALLEVYN^◊ Sacrum is based on the same technology and design as ALLEVYN^◊ Adhesive and is also suitable for moderate to highly exuding wounds. It is anatomically shaped to fit the difficult to dress sacral area so it stays in place for up to 5 days and enhances patient comfort.
