HYDROSORB GEL WOUND DRESSING
Hydrosorb Gel is a clear, viscous, sterile gel, which is used for the treatment of dry chronic wounds. It contains Ringers solution, glycerol, hydroxy-ethyl cellulose and carboxy-methyl cellulose. It does not contain polyethylene glycol.
Hydrosorb gel provides a moist wound environment helping to promote wound healing. It softens dry necrotic tissue, while facilitating the removal of devitalised tissue and absorbing wound debris and exudate.
The syringe presentation enables gel application directly into the wound for safe, clean dosing. The reverse plunger allows accurate measuring of dispelled contents to the nearest millimetre, thus minimising the risk of application errors and enabling simple documentation.
The gel may be left on the wound for up to 3 days and requires a suitable secondary dressing to prevent drying out.
Contraindications:
- Full thickness burns
Hydrosorb Gel will require a retention tape or bandage. Best for fragile skin.
