SOLOSITE WOUND GEL
Preserved Multi-Use Hydrogel
Hydrogels are a group of interactive dressings which have a high water content (up to 80% for amorphous gels, 90% for sheet gels). These products have the unique ability to provide additional moisture to the wound which both rehydrates necrotic and sloughy tissue to effect debridement and to absorb certain amounts of wound fluid into themselves. Hydrogel sheets such as IntraSite* Conformable present as flexible dressings that do not change their shape upon absorbing wound fluid, as do amorphous gels ( SoloSite* Gel and IntraSite Gel) which progressively decrease in viscosity as they absorb wound fluid.
SoloSite* Gel creates and maintains an optimal moist wound environment as it desloughs and debrides. Unlike gels formulated with water miscible polymers, SoloSite's water “swellable” polymer remains gel-like until saturated, so it stays in the wound longer and requires fewer dressing changes.
SoloSite has been proven non-cytotoxic, non-irritating and non-sensitising (Data on File). Its crystal-clear, physically stable formula doesn't change colour, enabling an unimpeded view of the wound.

Benefits
Debriding and Desloughing Action
- SoloSite Gel gently rehydrates sloughy and necrotic tissue which must be removed before healing can progress. SoloSite also absorbs excess exudate, thereby halting the build-up of cellular derbris and so helping to prevent slough formation. SoloSite Gel is easily applied and removed, with gentle irrigation being all that is required for removal.
Moist Wound Healing
- SoloSite Gel provides a moist environment at the wound surface, preventing eschar formation and promoting fast, painless and problem free healing.
Multi-dose Dispensing
- SoloSite Gel contains effective preservatives to ensure that multiple reuse of the spray pack or tube may occur without fear of increasing the risk of wound infection.
Optimum Cost-Effectiveness
- SoloSite Gel offers unequalled cost-effectiveness with its multi-dose presentation, whilst significantly reducing the potential for wastage.
