Advanced wound dressings

The right dressing keeps the wound protected, controls drainage and keeps healing moving.

How we help

Modern dressings do much more than cover a wound. Depending on the wound, we use foam, alginate, hydrofiber, hydrocolloid, hydrogel, silver and other antimicrobial dressings, and collagen products.

The goal is the right moisture balance: not too wet, not too dry. We choose the dressing for the wound type, the amount of drainage and the skin around it, set a change schedule, and teach family members or caregivers what to do between visits.

Who it helps

  • Wounds with heavy or changing drainage
  • Fragile skin around the wound
  • Wounds at risk of infection
  • Patients and caregivers who need a simple routine

From daily to a few times a week, depending on the dressing and the drainage. We give a clear schedule.
