Managing wound exudate using a super-absorbent polymer dressing: a 53-patient clinical evaluation
Abstract
This real-life, observational evaluation shows that, by absorbing and retaining within its structure the corrosive enzymes found in chronic exudate, this dressing both reduces the likelihood of peri-wound maceration and promotes healing.
