Helps to maintain a moist wound healing environment in medium to heavily exuding wounds. The dressing is highly conformable, soft, absorbent, sterile, primary wound dressing. In reaction with wound exudate, it forms a gelatinous mass which maintains a moist healing environment. The high-integrity design helps to provide structure to the dressing upon removal.
Moderately-to-heavily exuding chronic and acute wounds: pressure ulcers, venous and arterial leg ulcers, diabetic ulcers, cavity wounds, graft and donor sites, post operative surgical wounds, superficial and partial thickness burns. TCan also be used to control minor bleeding in superficial wounds. Suitable for use under compression bandaging.
