Trachi-Dress Sterile Tracheostomy Dressing

Dedicated to keep the tracheal stoma

area dry and make tracheostomy

Trachi-Dress is a major advance over
traditional gauze and foam style dressings.
Trachi-Dress absorbs mucus – reducing the
risk of mucus sitting on the skin underneath a
tracheostomy tube.
Because mucus is absorbed into the body of
the dressing away from the skin – skin
excoriation is minimised and the risk of an
infected area developing is reduced.

The Unique Trachi-Dress 3 Layer Construction

The dressing comprises of three layers, each of which plays an important role.

LAYER ONE
This skin contact layer is non-adherent. The polyethylene film helps prevent tissue adhering to the dressing – thereby aiding removal when changing the dressing. This layer also helps keep the skin dry.

LAYER TWO
This is the absorbent layer. The middle section is constructed of viscose to ensure maximum absorbency, through capillary action which draws mucus away from the skin.

LAYER THREE
This viscose/polyethylene combination provides an effective seal which retains mucus within the body of the dressing.
