Hydrocolloid
Hydrocolloid dressings provide a moist, waterproof barrier that supports natural wound cleaning and faster healing. They are best suited for low to moderate exudate wounds. With options like thin, bordered, and sacrum designs, they protect the wound from moisture, friction, and shear.
Product Description
Hydrocolloid dressings are composed of materials such as pectin, gelatin, and carboxymethylcellulose, creating an optimal environment for autolytic debridement of necrotic wounds. These dressings are waterproof and provide a hypoxic environment to stimulate angiogenesis.
- Suitable for low-exudate wounds, including:
- Surgical wounds
- Traumatic wounds
- Pressure ulcers
- Donor sites
- Superficial and partial-thickness burns
- Diabetic ulcers
- Key benefits include:
- M – Moisture: The process of maintaining the right level of moisture in the wound to promote cell migration, prevent desiccation, and reduce the risk of maceration.
- E – Edge of Wound: Protecting the edges of the wound from damage, maceration, and further breakdown to support epithelialization and prevent wound expansion.
