Ultrasorbs Advanced+ Drypads

Medline’s Ultrasorbs Advanced+ Drypads promote effective moisture management and offer an ideal solution for the prevention of moisture-associated skin damage (MASD) in the most challenging of care settings..

These breathable and unique drypads are particularly useful in high-dependency wards like the intensive care, maternity and delivery units, or any other medical setting where moisture will have a high impact on patients´ skin. Patients undergoing surgeries longer than three hours will benefit especially from the moisture management capabilities of Ultrasorbs Advanced+ Drypads. Furthermore, manual handling and repositioning of patients is possible, thanks to back sheets with different tensile strengths that allow up to 170 kg.

Additionally, Ultrasorbs Advanced+ Drypads provide greater comfort as a result of an ultra-soft, non-woven top sheet that reduces friction and shear while maintaining its core integrity and doesn´t cling to the skin even when wet. And to help reduce heat build-up, each drypad comes without plastic backing, allowing airflow through a breathable 4-layer structure. This helps with maintaining an optimal microclimate.

Our Ultrasorbs Advanced+ Drypads not only help enhance patient comfort but also safety during repositioning. Thanks to special structural features and to high-performing, air-laid core with superabsorbent polymers, moisture and odours can be locked away. Therefore, it is possible to keep patients’ skin dry while preventing strikethrough. Repositioning these patients safely while maintaining their skin healthy and dry is possible.
