Overview

A dissolvable dressing that actively fights infection

PosiSep X BAM is a dissolvable, plant-based chitosan sinus and nasal dressing designed for both OR and in-office use. It ships compressed, hydrates in position for easier placement, and disappears on its own — no second appointment to remove it.

Compared to expanded chitosan products, PosiSep X BAM is safe for patients with shellfish allergies, ships compressed (no stuffing), and comes in three configurations that flex to your case mix.
