BREAST PROBLEMS AND TAPELESS


BREAST PROBLEMS AND TAPELESS

There are a myriad of surgical and non-surgical situations where wound dressing management affects comfort, recovery time, patient activity, cost, wound healing , complications and ultimate cosmetic results.   The choice of the wound dressing holder is important.   Variables such as the number of wounds, their location and the specific treatment prescribed dictate what is required of the breast dressing device.  Notice that traditional devices are mostly designed with a single intended purpose: support the breast or dress the wound.  Rarely does a single dressing device adequately deal with both needs.  It is also possible, by understanding the complexity of care and the number of variables, to encounter treatment changes during the course of care, so that a variety of wound dressings may be required before final resolution of the problem. It would be advantageous if a single dressing system were able to accommodate any or all of the variables and primary wound dressings and not only provide breast support, but also provide simple, comfortable, quick, cost effective, reimbursable and effective wound management.
Tapeless breast dressing holders, through a combination of design and material, address these specific needs and variables: location of wounds, number of wounds, different primary wound dressings, shape of the breast, size of the breast and even the presence of drains or tubes.  Tapeless is sized for comfort with material that is washable/reusable and non-allergenic.  Each breast is able to be independently managed.  As with all Tapeless products, the breast dressing holders are Medicare Part B reimbursable.
