Product Description
Hydrogel Impregnated Non-Woven Dressing, INTRASITE CONFORMABLE HYDROGEL Dressing, SIZE 10CM X 10CM BX/10 (SN-66000324)
Hydrogels are a group of interactive dressings which have a high water content (up to 80% for amorphous gels, 90% for sheet gels). These products have the unique ability to provide additional moisture to the wound which both rehydrates necrotic and sloughy tissue to effect debridement and to absorb certain amounts of wound fluid into themselves. Hydrogel sheets such as IntraSite* Conformable present as flexible dressings that do not change their shape upon absorbing wound fluid, as do amorphous gels ( SoloSite* Gel and IntraSite Gel) which progressively decrease in viscosity as they absorb wound fluid.
IntraSite* Conformable is a conformable hydrogel dressing which combines the advantages of IntraSite Gel with a non-woven dressing to aid in the gentle packing of deep, open or undermined wounds. The non-woven substrate ensures the gel remains in close contact with the entire wound surface. It is suitable for use in necrotic, sloughy and granulating wounds, and helps create a moist wound environment to facilitate healing.

Benefits
Debriding and Desloughing Action
IntraSite Conformable contains IntraSite Gel which has a gentle yet effective debriding and desloughing action. The gel rehydrates necrotic tissue and absorbs slough and wound exudate.
Fluid handling properties reduce the frequency of dressing changes and increase cost effectiveness.
Moist-wound Healing
IntraSite Conformable helps to create and maintain a moist wound environment. The presence of IntraSite Gel helps to prevents adherence to the wound surface, allowing easy dressing changes without damaging fragile new granulation tissue.
IntraSite Conformable is safe for use throughout the wound healing process.
Conformable
The non-woven dressing is both soft and conformable - conforming easily to awkward wound shapes and keeping the gel where it is needed (in contact with the wound surface).
Convenient and ready to use
IntraSite Conformable is convenient and ready to use, offering an alternative delivery system for IntraSite Gel. The easy-peel pack is customer friendly and allows aseptic application.
