With Hydrolock® technology
Unlike traditional gelling fibres, Exufiber® and Exufiber® Ag+ are non-woven polyvinyl alcohol fibre dressings. On contact with exudate they transform into a gel. The tightly packed fibres keep exudate locked in while the capillary action enables transfer of exudate to the secondary dressing
A cavity model was used to simulate the fluid transfer capability of Exufiber® and Aquacel® ribbon dressings. 5ml of Solution A was added to the cavity and the dressings were left to absorb and transfer. An additional 5ml was then added and the dressings left to absorb and transfer again. Exufiber® demonstrated a better capability to transfer fluid to the secondary dressing than Aquacel®, and when the dressings were removed, less fluid was left in the cavity
