Stratamed is an advanced, transparent, and semi-occlusive film-forming wound dressing used after surgery, full field procedures (i.e. ablative laser) or on deeper wounds. Stratamed has been developed with a special consistency to ensure that it remains in stronger contact with the wound bed or damaged surface. Benefits: Flexible, full contact: Stratamed dries to form a thin and flexible protective film which remains in constant contact with the damaged skin. Reduced downtime: Stratamed reduces downtime by creating an optimal environment for faster wound healing. Bacteriostatic: Stratamed protects the compromised skin from microbial invasion and does not promote bacterial growth. Symptom relief: Stratamed provides symptomatic relief from itching, burning, and discomfort, as well as reduces redness and swelling. Non-reactive: Stratamed is inert, has no measurable pH value, contains no alcohol, parabens, or fragrances. This makes it suitable for children and people with sensitive skin. Medical device: Stratamed is registered as a European class IIa, TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration), and FDA-listed Class I medical device (wound dressing). It is suitable for the use on open wounds, and mucosa (e.g., Nasal, oral, and urethral) How does Stratamed work? Stratamed dries to form a thin, flexible, protective layer that is gas permeable and waterproof. It hydrates and protects compromised skin areas and open wounds from chemical and microbial invasion. Epidermal cells are able to move to the surface of the dermis through wound exudate, which collects at the wound dressing interface. This environment prevents secondary tissue damage resulting from dehydration. This environment promotes enzymatic autolytic debridement. Wound exudate, which carries a number of growth factors essential to the healing of wounds, is kept protected in the wound-dressing interface. Stratamed emulates the epidermal barrier and helps enhance the healing of wounds. Stratamed prevents water loss while maintaining the oxygen transfer rate. The wound is kept in an optimal environment for healing. Who can use Stratamed? Stratamed is designed for all skin types. It is suitable for pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, children, or people with sensitive skin. Stratamed is transparent and odorless. It does not contain alcohol, fragrances, or parabens. Stratamed always remains on top of the wound bed or newly formed granulation tissue. Stratamed is suitable for all skin types. Stratamed is non-reactive with no measurable pH. Stratamed is easy to use at home. Stratamed may be used during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. How to use Stratamed? Apply once daily, or twice daily to exposed areas or as advised by your doctor. For best results, Stratamed should maintain continuous contact with the skin (24 hours a day/ 7 days a week). For more information click below: Flyer *This Product image is only for Reference
