KIS® Gelling Fibre Dressing is a perfect balance between absorbency and wet strength. After absorbing the exudate, the dressing swells to form a transparent gel, preventing leakage and maceration, and maintaining the optimal moist healing environment.
After the fibres absorb exudate, it gels and has low risk of fibre shedding and dressing residue and maintains an optimal moist wound healing environment. High wet strength enables dressing removal in one piece. It is also flexible to fill cavity wounds, with easy application and removal.
Indications:
KIS® Gelling Fibre Dressing is used for the management of moderately to heavily exuding acute or chronic wounds. It can also be pre-moistened for effective use on
- Leg ulcers
- Pressure injuries
- Diabetic ulcers
- Surgical wounds
- Traumatic wounds
- Oncology wounds
Benefits:
- High absorbtion
- Excellent retention capacity, locks in exudate and bacteria, preventing the risk of cross contamination on removal.
- Minimal lateral wicking, protecting peri-wound skin from maceration.
- Unique Anti-Shrinkage Properties, soft and flexible and contours to the wound bed to minimise dead space where bacteria can live.
The gelling fibre technology has enhanced vertical and horizontal tensile strength and anti-shrinkage properties.
