This article describes the evaluation in clinical practice of Kliniderm silicone wound contact layer on 21 patients over a two-week period, with an average of four dressing changes and a minimum of two dressing changes. An evaluation form was completed at each dressing change; aspects being evaluated included patient comfort on application, ease of application, conformability, exudate transfer to secondary dressing, ability to stay in place, ease of removal, patient comfort on removal, the condition of the wound and periwound skin, and the wear time of the dressing. The ratings from each evaluation form were collated and an average rating was calculated for each category.
