ASKINA TRACHEA

Askina Trachea is a nonadhesive, sterile, conforming hydrocellular dressing for tracheostomies. It consists of a polyurethane foam with high absorption capacity in contact with the lesion and an outer layer consisting of a polyurethane film, which is vapor permeable and resistant to water and bacteria. The special conformation makes it possible to protect the skin from the ression exerted by tracheostomy cannulas.

The choice of the elements of the two layers that make up the dressing makes it possible to:
- Protect the lesion from shear forces
- Reduce the pressure exerted from the outside
- Manage excess exudate
- Maintain the proper moist environment, preventing the skin from macerating under the dressing
- Easy removal/replacement Askina Trachea is conformed for tracheostomies and consists of a bilaminar structure:
1. Layer in contact with the lesion made of hydrophilic absorbent polyurethane foam
2. Outer layer of polyurethane film impermeable to liquids and bacteria and gas permeable
