 soft debridement |
Description- polyacrylate containing absorbent wound dressings ("pampers-principle")- very high water uptake, even under compression - edge protection by vertical exudate management, prevent maceration - rough surface allows sludge uptake, "soft" Debridement. Indications- heavy ans very heavy exudation- mesh (split skin) graft protection Limitations- dry wounds (exception: protection of young mesh graft)- free tendons, bones - pain on removal (add contact layer) Notes- superabsorber pads (10x10) achieve the uptake of up to 150 bzw 300ml- employment unter compression is possible - achieve contact to wound bed, by filling - overlap wound edge well - additional fixation by bandage caution: conventional foils may damage skin by tension due to volume growth of the dressing Change of dressing- on demand after 2 to 7 daysLink to producers
