The professional's guide to wound product selection
A sterile, non-woven pad consisting of a high M (mannuronic acid) calcium alginate and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Silver ions are released in the presence of wound fluid. As fluid is absorbed, the alginate forms a soft gel. Effective for up to 7 days.
Combines two wound-care technologies: carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and alginate fibres. A soft, conformable, highly absorbent dressing that converts into a soft clear gel when in contact with wound exudate. A hidden integrity layer in the dressing aids intact removal. Can remain in situ for up to 7 days.
A two-layer dressing consisting of a polyurethane bacterial barrier membrane with a centrally located hydrophilic pad and an acrylic adhesive border
A three-layer construction with a low-friction backing, a soft highly absorbent foam and a perforated wound contact layer
Consists of a thin layer of hydrocolloid laminated to a highly breathable film. Contains a mixture of synthetic polymers and hydrophilic powders, with a high moisture vapour transmission rate film backing. Does not contain animal-derived ingredients.
Consists of a layer of hydrocolloid laminated to a breathable film, and a polyurethane foam backing. Does not contain animal-derived ingredients.
Contains 85% water and a collection of polymer chains that are water insoluble. Does not contain animal-derived ingredients.
Sterile antimicrobial wound dressings consisting of a hydrophilic polyurethane foam, which is designed to absorb exudate. The foam contains the antimicrobial substance PHMB, which kills and inhibits the growth of bacteria.
A soft conformable dressing that is effective against gram negative bacteria, gram positive bacteria and yeast. It contains the antimicrobial substance polyhexanide. The perforated wound contact layers contain a gentle silicone adhesive that provides secure, non-irritating adhesion and supports non-traumatic removal during dressing changes.
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.
