Basic Wound Dressing
Product Introduction
Basic Wound Dressing mainly include PU Film Dressings and Nonwoven Wound Dressing. The former takes polyurethane film as the core material and is often covered with a hypoallergenic adhesive layer; the latter is made of non-woven fabrics (such as cotton, polyester and other fibers) and can be divided into ordinary type and water absorption-enhanced type. Both types of dressings take basic wound protection as their core function, have relatively simple structures, can meet the wound care needs of daily and primary clinical scenarios, and are basic dressing types with a wide range of applications.
Product Advantages and Features
They mainly meet the needs of basic protection and simple exudate management, and do not have the advanced effects unique to high-end dressings, such as maintaining a moist healing environment, anti-infection or scar prevention. They are more suitable for daily care scenarios of mild and superficial wounds.
Type of product
PU Film Dressing
Nonwoven Wound Dressing
Product Application
They are widely used in daily care of minor traumas, such as superficial abrasions, scratches, and broken skin after mosquito bites. In clinical scenarios, they can be used as primary protective dressings for post-operative sutured wounds, or for fixation and protection of intravenous infusion and puncture sites. In addition, PU film dressings are also suitable for superficial protection after mild burns and skin transplantation, while non-woven dressings can be used as auxiliary fixation layers for other functional dressings, covering a variety of basic wound protection needs from home care to basic medical care.
