Presented by HARTMANN USA, Inc.
HARTMANN is excited to share new findings about Curly Fiber, the proprietary component in Dignity® and MoliCare® Briefs with Curly Fiber responsible for significantly lowering the pH of voids to a skin-friendly pH 4.5-5.5. Following a review of the evidence linking pH to Incontinence Associated Skin Damage/Dermatitis (IASD/IAD), you will see a live product demonstration wherein absorptive products with Curly Fiber instantly reduce the pH of synthetic urine to the skin-friendly range. With her favorite topic teed up, renowned incontinence expert and leading researcher Dr. Donna Bliss will discuss: a recent study examining the skin pH of nursing home residents; the latest advances in absorbent products and their role in potentially preventing (IASD/IAD); a new interactive strategy for teaching IASD best practices; and the role of the continence nurse specialist.
