With four aspects of wound care in one formulation, PolyMem can be used throughout the wound-healing continuum.
PolyMem is also indicated for all wound types (e.g., full and partial thickness wounds, skin tears, ulcers, surgical wounds, first- and second-degree burns).
PolyMem dressings are highly absorbent, allowing up to seven days between changes, depending on the wound status. This can mean a substantial reduction in labor and dressing costs.
PolyMem dressings provide a clear built-in visual indication of when they need to be changed, taking the guesswork out of patient care.
Because of PolyMem's built-in cleansing and absorption capabilities, you may be able to change dressings less often and reduce wound bed cleansing during those changes, saving you precious time.

PolyMem's formulation keeps the wound bed moist and promotes the concentration of the body's naturally produced growth factors, nutrients and regenerated cells in the wound bed. As a result, clinical studies show that PolyMem dressings offer quicker wound recovery times than traditional dressings and have been found to help heal wounds that had previously been unsuccessfully treated.
PolyMem's built-in cleansing capabilities minimize the need for manual wound bed cleansing during dressing changes. Manual cleansing can be harmful, disturbing the wound bed and any surrounding healthy tissue.

PolyMem uses glycerin to soothe traumatized tissues, reducing wound pain and providing comfort at the wound site.
PolyMem dressing pad removes with virtually no pain, improving the caregiver-patient interaction and overall care experience.
