Composition of sterile hydrocellular dressing
- Sterile, hydrocellular and multilaminar dressing, composed of a dry layer of hydrogel that captures the exudate and keeps it away from the wound and a layer of foam, which allows the evaporation of moisture, providing comfort to the patient.
- Composed of semi-permeable polyester/polyurethane film, polyester/polyurethane foam, polyester and polyacrylate fabric and a hypoallergenic acrylic adhesive layer. Impermeable to water and bacteria, but permeable to gas exchange.
Advantages
- Regulates the moisture level of the wound;
- Does not adhere to the wound bed;
- Does not macerate the skin and leaves no residue;
- Good absorption capacity;
- High capacity to keep the medium moist, ideal for healing;
- Protects the nerve endings and bone prominences;
- It can dispense with the use of secondary cover;
- The dressing change is atraumatic;
- Impermeable to bacteria and liquids and permeable to gas exchange.
