Smith+Nephew Iodosorb Dressing 5g 6 X 4cm

Description

IODOSORB is a sterile formulation of cadexomer iodine (0.9%) indicated for the treatment and healing of chronic ulcers. The iodine in IODOSORB is bound within the cadexomer smart micro beads. When IODOSORB comes in contact with the wound, it absorbs exudate and debris and swells, gradually releasing iodine over time. Changes colour from brown to white when the dressing requires changing, it helps to reduce 
odour associated with heavily contaminated wounds.

IODOSORB works in four ways:

1. Disrupts biofilms.
2. Kills micro-organisms, reducing the bioburden.
3. Removes exudate and slough, promoting a clean wound bed and reducing the risk of infection.
4. Forms a gel which creates a moist wound healing environment, protecting delicate granulation tissue.

Indications:

• Treatment of chronic exuding wounds.
• Can be used under compression therapy .
• May be used on infected wounds.
