Medline’s Ultrasorbs AP Breathable Drypad offers a disposable, air-permeable sheet for effective moisture management, making it ideal for ICU patients exposed to excessive moisture. Each drypad helps prevent moisture-associated skin damage (MASD) in even the most demanding care environments.
The heavy-absorbency drypads feature an extra-wide absorbent layer and a super-absorbent core to keep skin dry. High-performing, super-absorbent polymers lock in wetness and odor, enhancing patient comfort. The drypad is compatible with various mattresses and bed setups, particularly in high-dependency wards like the ICU.
Designed for both patients and caregivers, Ultrasorbs offer several benefits:
- Minimizes separation, bunching, or clinging to wet skin and remains dry to the touch within minutes
- Reduces friction and shear while maintaining core integrity
- Provides greater comfort with an ultra-soft, non-woven top sheet
- Ensures exceptional skin dryness with no strikethrough, reducing heat build-up and maintaining an optimal micro-environment through a breathable back sheet
Caregiver benefits include:
- Protection against leakage, reducing the need for frequent linen changes due to the Micro-pore AquaShield film
- Prevention of fluid overflow with exclusive fold-over edges
- Compatibility with low-air-loss mattresses
Available in three sizes: 25 x 40 cm, 45 x 61 cm, and 58.4 x 90 cm. Ultrasorbs AP Breathable Drypad is part of Medline’s skin protection and MASD prevention portfolio, designed to support healthcare staff in monitoring patients’ skin.
