Designed for Larger Bleeding Wounds
The AEROWOUND™ #15 Wound Dressing is designed for first aid situations where a larger absorbent pad is needed.
Its 18 × 18 cm wound pad provides more coverage than smaller wound dressing formats, making it suitable for appropriate larger wounds, trauma-related injuries, industrial accidents and first aid incidents where broader wound coverage may be required.
The integrated pad and bandage design also helps simplify response. First aiders do not need to locate a separate pad and bandage, which can make the dressing faster and more practical to apply during urgent situations.
