Smart Exudate Management
Four steps to smart exudate management, giving you the confidence to leave it on for longer
-
-
1. Rapid absorption without swelling
The foam layer allows rapid absorption of both normal and viscous exudate.1 2 It is better at handling exudate than comparable dressings3 4 5 allowing you to leave it on for longer.

2. Exudate channeled to increase breathability
The layers of the dressing channel exudate away from the wound bed and spread it over a wide surface area to increase moisture vapor loss. Minimal swelling. 6 Maximum conformability. 7 Low profile.

3. Bacteria trapped away from the wound
The superabsorbent fibers in in the retention layer prevent exudate containing bacteria from re-entering the wound bed, even under compression. 8

4. Exudate tracked without dressing removal
The Exudate Progress Monitor allows the spread of exudate to be objectively assessed and recorded, without disturbing the wound. 9

Exudate Progress Monitor
We have added a dot pattern on the backing film-the unique Exudate Progress Monitor—so you can easily track and record fluid as it spreads, without disturbing the wound. 9
