Manage difficult-to-dress wounds with Triad®

Some wounds can be difficult-to-dress. Whether the wound is on an irregular surface or exposed to moisture, wound dressings can be challenging to keep in place.

Difficult-to-dress wounds

On wet or irregular surfaces, wound dressings may not always stay in place. This could lead to frequent dressing replacements which can negatively impact your facility. Here’s how:

Triad creates a moist wound healing environment that facilitates autolytic debridement.

What challenges may Triad help you address?

Wounds on irregular surfaces

  • Triad is designed to be applied directly onto the wound without the need for a secondary dressing.
  • Irregular surfaces could include the gluteal cleft, coccyx, perineum, buttocks, groin, face, hands and feet.

Broken skin due to incontinence

  • Triad is a sterile coating that can be used on broken skin.
  • CMC allows Triad to adhere to wet skin, keeping the wound covered and protected from incontinence.
Maceration of the periwound skin

Maceration of the periwound skin

  • Triad is easy to use on larger surfaces and can be used on the wound and periwound skin.
  • CMC allows Triad to adhere to macerated skin, keeping it covered and protected from wound exudate.
Facilitating autolytic debridement

Facilitating autolytic debridement

  • Triad creates a moist wound healing environment. This facilitates autolytic debridement, where the body's enzymes break down necrotic tissue.
  • CMC allows Triad to absorb low to moderate levels of wound exudate or broken-down tissue.
