This presentation examines key factors in selecting foam dressings for pressure injury prevention, highlighting a study of a novel multilayer design that dissipates shear through internal sliding between non-bonded layers. Attendees will explore clinical application strategies to leverage this advanced structure for mitigating friction and shear, enhancing protection, and improving patient outcomes.

This webinar is brought to you by

Identify key attributes of multilayer foam dressings that influence their effectiveness in preventing pressure injuries.
Explain how the foam dressing mechanism of action reduces shear force, and why this is important for protecting vulnerable areas.
Apply insights from clinical practice, understanding how advanced dressing technology can help minimize tissue stress and improve patient outcomes.
