MedVance SG_B077DGB8GT_US Silicone Foam Sacral Dressing, 9" x 9", 5-Pack

For wound care that calls for broad coverage over the sacral area, this MedVance silicone foam dressing combines an adhesive border with a five-layer absorbent design. The 9" x 9" dressing is intended for wounds up to 6.1" x 6.6" and can be used for pressure ulcers and bed sores, as well as surgical wounds, burns, and skin tears. Each box contains five sterile, individually wrapped dressings.

Its foam core absorbs exudate, while the silicone adhesive helps hold the dressing in place without sticking to the wound. A waterproof, breathable polyurethane film adds a protective barrier while allowing oxygen flow.

Quick overview

The sacral shape provides coverage across the buttocks and lower back area, with a bordered design that helps keep the dressing secure on the skin. The five layers cushion and protect the wound while supporting a moist healing environment. The foam is designed to absorb up to 15 times its weight in fluid, helping manage wound exudate and reduce dressing changes compared with gauze.

Customers often praise the dressing’s adhesion, coverage, comfort, and ease of application. Feedback on size varies: some appreciate the broad coverage, while others find it larger than needed for certain bed sores. The listed wound size provides a practical reference when selecting a dressing for a specific area.

How to use it

Center the sacral dressing over the wound area so its coverage corresponds to the wound size, then secure the adhesive border to the surrounding skin. Its silicone contact layer is designed to avoid sticking to the wound itself, which can make removal more comfortable. Follow the wound-care instructions provided by the treating healthcare professional for application and dressing changes.

Usage tips

This dressing suits situations where an absorbent, cushioned cover is useful over the sacrum or buttocks, including care for pressure ulcers, bed sores, surgical wounds, burns, and skin tears. For a smaller, simple wound, a basic gauze dressing may be a more straightforward choice, the MedVance option adds a shaped sacral fit, a silicone adhesive border, and a waterproof, breathable outer film. Its individually wrapped sterile format also makes it convenient to keep dressings organized for wound-care routines.
