Our NuMed Bordered Foam dressing 4×4 features a waterproof, thin, clear adhesive border and a non-stick foam pad.

Designed for optimal wound care, foam dressings are absorbent and non-adherent, effectively drawing moisture and debris away from the wound bed while providing a protective barrier against environmental contaminants. These versatile dressings can also be used to safeguard intact skin from pressure- and friction-related damage.

Our Numed Foam wound dressing pads are among the most widely used dressings in wound care, frequently employed to protect heels, elbows, amputation sites, and the sacrum (tailbone area).

Ideal for managing moist wounds, foam dressings excel at minimizing discomfort and pain by providing essential padding and preventing dressing-related trauma.

The Bordered Foam combines the protective and absorbent benefits of ultra foam with a transparent, waterproof, gentle adhesive film border, offering a comprehensive solution for wound care.

What is a Foam Wound Dressing made from?

Foam dressings are made up of fibers with small open cells that form an absorbent, sponge-like material. These open cells draw up drainage and debris from the wound bed, promoting a moist healing environment for natural healing.

Foam dressings are non-adherent and provide thermal insulation while acting as a protective cushion over the healing wound bed. These dressings allow water vapor across the surface of the wound, but block fluids, bacteria, and other contaminants from entering.

Foam dressings can also be used to protect intact skin from friction and to cushion and offload pressure over bony areas, reducing the risk of breakdown.

Advantages of Bordered Foam Dressings

• absorb minimal to heavy drainage
• provide thermal insulation to maintain ideal wound surface temperature for faster healing
• semi-permeable, allow gas/vapor to escape but block water and contaminants from entering
• promote moist wound environment, optimal for natural healing
• protective cushion for healing wound bed or fragile, intact skin
• fill “dead” space in deep cavity wounds
• non-adherent, reducing pain and trauma with removal
• appropriate for use under compression

How to Apply Bordered Foam Dressings

• clean with wound cleanser or saline, pat dry
• remove paper backing and place Bordered Foam Dressing on wound with adhesive side down
• starting from center blue line, peel away both sides of top film, holding dressing in place and smoothing out any air bubbles or wrinkles as film is removed
• recommended dressing change every 3-7 days, depending on amount of wound drainage

Uses for Bordered Foam Dressings

• wounds with small to large amounts of drainage
• pressure ulcers (stages II-IV)
• venous stasis ulcers
• infected wounds
• painful wounds
• may be used under compression
• wounds with red granulation tissue or soft necrotic tissue (slough)
• hypergranulation tissue (excessive or raised granulation tissue extending above skin surface)
• shallow, draining wounds
• deep cavity wounds
• fragile intact skin

Considerations for Bordered Foam Dressings

• Not indicated for dry (non-draining) wounds, dry necrotic tissue (eschar), 3^rd degree burns, or sinus tracts
