-pressure ulcers
-abrasions and lacerations
-post-operative wounds.
-surgical excisions

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Farmactive Idrogel is a layer of transparent sterile dressing composed of absorbent hydrocellular polymer hydrogel. The external layer is water and bacteria resistant, but it allows the transpiration of wound exudate. The high water content helps create and maintain a damp environment which promotes the wound healing process, while the slightly refreshing and soothing effect provides the patient with relief. The dressing does not stick to the wound, it allows gas and aqueous vapour to pass freely, protecting skin against the risk of maceration. Plus, the transparent structure marked with squares makes it possible to monitor the healing process of the wound and observe the formation of new granulated tissue, without having to remove the dressing.
Farmactive Idrogel absorbs the exudate of the wound without dissolving; it offers atraumatic removal and does leave any residues
