Smith+Nephew's ALLEVYN LIFE Foam Dressing shows promise in pressure injury prevention, according to a study by Prof. Amit Gefen's group.
Smith+Nephew unveils new study data supporting its ALLEVYN LIFE Foam Dressing in pressure injury prevention. Research by Prof. Amit Gefen's group published in the International Wound Journal reveals a novel mechanism of action. The dressing's independent internal layers allow for layer-on-layer sliding, which absorbs 30-45% of mechanical energy, potentially reducing pressure injury incidence in patients' skin and soft tissues.
