Gauze sponges impregnated with 0.2% polyhexanide.
Can be used as a primary or secondary dressing; can also be used in combination with negative pressure wound therapy. Suitable for deep and chronic wounds; surgical wounds healing by secondary intention; where packing is required; moderate to heavily exuding wounds.
A sterile dressing containing the antimicrobial substance polyhexamethylene biguanide (Polyhexanide, polyhexanide), which kills bacteria and inhibits its growth. Polyhexanide released in the presence of wound exudate is an effective antimicrobial agent against a broad spectrum of microorganisms. Manages wound exudate and microbial contamination, reducing wound pain during healing. The perforated wound contact layer contains a gentle silicone adhesive that provides secure, non-irritating adhesion and supports non-traumatic removal during dressing changes. The low-friction, waterproof polyurethane film provides a bacterial barrier to the wound.
