About the product
Biatain® Silicone Fit is a silicone foam dressing indicated for both pressure injury prevention and wound management.
Biatain® Silicone Fit matches the shape and depth of the wound bed up to 2 cm deep.¹ This leaves minimal space for gaps where exudate can pool, helping to reduce the risk of maceration. We call that fit to the wound.
Biatain® Silicone Fit embraces the body’s natural form with a border that is flexible for patient comfort2,3 and it is designed to stay in place during wear. We call that fit to the body.
