Super Absorbent Dressing

Super absorbent dressing are suitable for moderate to severe exudative wounds, odoriferous wounds, such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure sores, first and second degree burns, postoperative care, and traumatic injuries. 

The super absorbent dressing can be used in the dressing room, room of the wound and care clinic.

If the wound shows signs of infection, it should be treated with antibiotics before using super absorbent dressing.

As a general rule, super absorbent dressing  can be left in place for several days (up to 14 days) depending on the wound condition.  super absorbent dressing  can be used on a variety of different types of wounds, each with its own specific wound care protocol and characteristics.  super absorbent dressing should be observed at the time of each cover dressing change to be sure the pores remain unclogged with thick exudate or other material. Although the general condition of the wound can be observed through the  super absorbent dressing in place the dressing should be changed when the clinician wishes to examine the wound bed closely.

Super absorbent dressing remains in place best over wounds when one continuous piece is used and anchored on all four edges with at least 1 cm to intact skin surrounding the wound. It is recommended to use a size that accomplishes this goal whenever possible. When a wound is larger than can be accommodated by our largest size 20*40cm, you may use and overlap two or more pieces by up to 1 cm, but observe the overlapped edges at each change of the cover dressing to ensure that they remain in contact. Note that the overlap may cause occlusion of the holes in that area. On larger wound this has no practical implications, but we do not recommend it on smaller wounds.
