Cover protects and repairs damaged and irritated skin in frequent incontinence with moisture damage (IAD) or moisture related injuries from drooling, perspiration and wound fluid. The cream also prevents and controls skin irritations such as redness and cracks associated with pressure ulcers (up to category 2) and intertrigo.
Incontinence is a growing problem in healthcare, partly due to the ever-increasing life expectancy. Approximately half of all elderly patients in healthcare institutions suffer from urinary and/or fecal incontinence. In elderly patients, incontinence is a structural and frequent cause of skin damage, but it is also a risk factor for other vulnerable groups (such as babies). Cover has been specially developed for the daily treatment and care of incontinent patients. It is a welcome solution for the cost-efficient treatment and prevention of moisture damage and pressure sores up to category 2. In addition, Cover can be used effectively against other moisture-related skin problems, such as intertrigo and diaper rash.
Cover is a soft, viscous, non-greasy, non-perfumed, allergen-free, fragrance-free surface product based on dimethicone. Cover promotes skin repair by optimally protecting the skin and is suitable for the care of the skin in case of superficial skin damage due to moisture damage. It is also suitable for the prevention of skin damage due to exposure to environmental factors such as shear forces.
