MedVance TM Silicone Bordered Dressings Review

2nd Attempt of Customer Review: Received Only One Headband in Large Manila Envelope. I was expecting a $30 box of 5. Can a MedVance representative help me get the other four? UPDATE 11/23/2018. The other four never arrived.

Urinating is enough to get rid of things stuck on the skin. waste of money! You spend your $6 a piece on an incontinence. 2 hours of use and it has become useless as the urine has already separated the sticky part. Even stretch the skin so that there are no wrinkles when applied.

This product is very effective in treating pressure sores on the buttocks. Bandages stay in place and cover most of the body. They may need to be changed more frequently than indicated if your patient is incontinent. They are expensive, but cost a lot less than wound care at a hospital or rehabilitation center.

I am RN. This assignment aimed to solve a friend's problem. The product was exactly as advertised by Revain. Sterile, well packaged and tailored to the size of the wound. It stayed on until I changed it on day 3 and it gave my friend more comfort as opposed to a surgical bandage or a simple Vaseline gauze bandage. Will definitely order again and recommend.

My husband is paralyzed from the waist down and uses a wheelchair. He's always trying to get bed sores on his tailbone. For months we could not find anything to stick on in this area! These work great! They get stuck for more than 4 days what you expect them to do. However, you must cover them when showering as they swell up like a diaper.

Same benefits as the Mepilex brand but cheaper. If you have skin that is tearing from a bandage (tape, cloth, etc.) this is for you. After seeing these silicone bandages in the hospital, I started looking for ways to save money since the Mepilex brand is very expensive. Not all forms are available on MedVance, but this one is. Love it and works just as well as the other brand. Thanks very much!

I have been using this for my wife for almost 3 years. I liked the product. I received my most recent purchase and they redesigned the bandage and actually made it smaller. I checked to make sure I didn't accidentally order something different, but NO, it's the same product code and the exact same packaging and description. I don't like them at all, I will switch to another brand. I don't think MedVance believes in the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it," but it's clear (to me) that…

They are very difficult to get from insurance and are the best bandages. Especially with bed sores. I use medimed calcium alginate patches on the ulcer and then put this pad on. (Make sure you don't smear the edges with grease or powder and apply to the skin where there is no grease or powder where you want to stick the edges. If you do it right, they will hold up to three days and calcium aginate plasters heal and dry the wound, you can use them for any wound, you can cover the tattoo to heal,

I work in a hospital with several different products, so maybe I'm spoiled, but I really didn't like these bandages. On a dressing change on the continent, an outpatient with an open pressure ulcer, I noticed maceration around a healed wound area, even using Aquacel AG Advanced to protect the area. The lack of stretch in the adhesive makes it easy to apply well from the start, but isn't very forgiving if you miss the tailbone area when applying the bandage. Dressings soak through much quicker…
