For optimal moisture management[5,6] make Zetuvit® Plus Silicone Border your preferred choice.
Estimating how the amount of exudate in a wound will develop over time can be very challenging. While moist wounds heal 2 to 3 times faster than dry wounds[1] skin maceration, prolonged wound healing times and pain are just some of the factors that can result from inadequate exudate management.
Super absorbent polymer dressings such as Zetuvit® Plus Silicone Border are gaining in popularity: they are now included in the latest edition of the World Union of Wound Healing Societies’ (WUWHS) consensus document on effective assessment and management of wound exudate.[3]
Falanga's Wound Exudate Score with its 3 levels is the method favoured by WUWHS for assessing wound exudate.[4]
Zetuvit® Plus Silicone Border can be used for both levels 2 and 3 of the classification, making the selection of the dressing simple and ensures optimal choice of dressing, so you're prepared even if the amount of exudate increases unexpectedly.
