Choosing a dressing
Dressing choice follows the wound: exudate level, depth, infection risk and the skin around it. Low-exudate wounds often take hydrocolloid dressings; moderate to heavy exudate calls for foam or alginate; fragile skin favors silicone adhesives. The clinical team makes the final choice, and most buyers stock a core set in several sizes.
Buyer questions, answered
What are the types of wound dressings and their uses?
Main types are hydrocolloid dressings for low-exudate wounds, foam dressings for moderate to heavy exudate, alginate dressings for heavily exuding or cavity wounds, silicone dressings for fragile skin, hydrogel for dry wounds, and adhesive island dressings or gauze for simple cuts and post-operative wounds.
How do you choose the appropriate dressing for each wound type?
Assess the wound's exudate, depth, signs of infection and the surrounding skin, then choose a dressing that keeps a moist balance and stays in place for the planned wear time. Clinical teams make this choice; buyers usually stock a core set of foam, hydrocolloid, alginate and gauze in several sizes.
Which wound care products are used for pressure ulcers?
Pressure ulcer programs commonly use foam and hydrocolloid dressings shaped for the sacrum and heel, together with pressure relief and skin care. Our catalog lists sacral and heel shapes in both hydrocolloid and foam. Treatment decisions belong to the wound care team.
