Hydrocolloid Wound Dressing For Pressure Ulcer

Why choose hydrocolloid dressings?

Moist healing environment
After absorbing exudate, it forms a semi-solid gel, maintains a moist and closed environment for the wound, promotes microvascular proliferation and epithelial cell migration, and accelerates the healing process.
The moist environment can reduce pain, provide appropriate oxygen concentration, stimulate the release of growth factors, and accelerate capillary formation.
Dynamic exudate management
Contains hydrophilic particles such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and automatically adjusts the absorption capacity according to the amount of exudate. The thin type is suitable for low exudate wounds, and the ordinary type is suitable for medium exudate wounds.
After the gel is formed, the permeability is enhanced, allowing water to evaporate, avoiding the accumulation of exudate and causing wound maceration.
Autolytic debridement function
Fibrin is dissolved by endogenous enzymes, and the closed environment activates macrophages to remove necrotic tissue, achieving painless debridement.
Applicable to dry, slough or necrotic wounds, softening hard scabs and promoting the regeneration of healthy tissues.
Physical protection and antibacterial effect
Closely fit the wound to form a closed barrier, isolate bacterial contamination, and reduce the risk of infection.
The smooth outer surface reduces the friction between the skin and the outside world, preventing pressure sores and secondary injuries.
Convenient to use and biocompatible
The transparent film-like design makes it easy to observe the progress of the wound, and the soft material adapts to irregular parts such as joints.
Hypoallergenic materials reduce skin irritation, and some products support repeated peeling and patching to adjust the position.
 

About Hydrocolloid wound dressing:

1.PROMOTES HEALING: Hydrocolloid dressings provides a moist wound healing environment. ( Compared with traditional wound dressings, such as gauze).

2.EASY TO APPLY AND REMOVE: Soft and hypoallergenic adhesive acts as a wound contact layer that does not stick to the wound bed but to intact skin thus prevents secondary damage and minimizes pain during dressing removal and change.
SEMI-PERMEABLE: Semi–permeable PU film acts a liquid barrier while allows the passage of oxygen and water vapor. The multilayer structure works together to create a high absorbent yet breathable surface keeping the wound moist and sterile.

3.STERILE AND INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED: Each dressing is manufactured in a sterile facility and are individually wrapped to prevent contamination of wounds. Can be used in hospitals, senior care homes, hospice, and other medical facilities.

4.MULTI-USE: Effective for applications such as post-operative wounds, bed sores, cysts, pressure ulcers, burns, and other minor traumas.

Directions
Apply the hydrocolloid dressing to the wound, ensuring it adheres to the surrounding skin and does not cover the wound bed. The soft, hypoallergenic adhesive should not cause secondary damage or pain during removal. The semi-permeable PU film allows oxygen and water vapor passage while maintaining a liquid barrier. Suitable for various applications such as post-operative wounds, bed sores, cysts, pressure ulcers, burns, and minor traumas.

Applicable scenarios
‌ Exudate classification‌:
Thin type (transparent film): suitable for dry or low exudate wounds (such as superficial abrasions, postoperative incisions).
Ordinary type (non-transparent): used for medium and low exudate wounds (such as pressure sores, leg ulcers, partial burns).
‌Wound type‌: chronic ulcers, Ⅰ-Ⅱ degree burns, donor site wounds, infected/dry wounds, etc.
