AQUACEL 1x45 cm tamponades with reinforcing fibers benefits:

AQUACEL 1x45 cm tamponades with reinforcing fibers offer several benefits in wound care due to their unique construction and properties. These dressings are designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds, providing a moist wound environment for optimal healing. The reinforcing fibers enhance the dressing's strength and make it easier to handle and remove, even when saturated. 
Here's a more detailed breakdown of the benefits:
High Absorbency:
The Hydrofiber® Technology in AQUACEL dressings absorbs wound fluid and transforms it into a soft gel, helping to maintain a moist wound environment conducive to healing. 
Enhanced Strength:
The reinforcing fibers, stitched into the dressing, provide increased strength, making it more resistant to tearing or shredding during application and removal. 
Easy Removal:
The fibers help the dressing maintain its integrity, even when saturated, allowing for clean and relatively pain-free removal. 
Exudate Management:
The gelling action of the dressing helps to lock in exudate and its harmful components, preventing maceration of the surrounding skin. 
Autolytic Debridement:
The moist environment created by the dressing facilitates autolytic debridement, which is the body's natural process of removing nonviable tissue, without damaging newly formed tissue. 
Versatile Application:
AQUACEL 1x45 cm tamponades are suitable for a variety of wound types, including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic wounds. 
Potential Antimicrobial Action:
Some AQUACEL dressings, like AQUACEL Ag+, incorporate silver, which can provide antimicrobial protection against a wide range of bacteria and fungi. 

Aquacel Extra

Aquacel Extra Hydrofiber Dressing with Reinforcing Fibers is a soft, sterile, non-woven compress or tamponade made of sodium carboxymethylcellulose and regenerated cellulose fiber for reinforcement. This highly absorbent dressing absorbs wound exudate and forms a soft gel. The gel keeps the wound moist, creating an optimal wound healing environment. Aquacel supports the healing process and facilitates the removal of dead tissue from the wound (autolytic debridement) without damaging the newly formed tissue.

Indications:
Under the supervision of a medical professional, the Aquacel Extra Hydrofiber Dressing with Reinforcing Fibers can be used to treat:

• Leg ulcers, pressure ulcers (grade II - IV) and diabetic ulcers.
• Surgical wounds (e.g. postoperative wounds with secondary healing and split skin graft sites).
• Second degree burns.
• Traumatic wounds e.g. (lacerations, abrasions, cuts).
• Exudate uptake in oncological wounds (ulcerating skin tumors, skin metastases and Kaposi's sarcoma).

Contraindications:
Aquacel Extra Hydrofiber Reinforced Dressing should not be used on individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergies to this dressing or its components.
