DRESSING HYDROCOLLOID, thin

Definition

A sterile wound covering, typically made of a hydrocolloid intended to produce a water-absorbent gel upon contact with wound exudate; it does not contain an antimicrobial agent. The device assists in wound healing by absorbing exudate in wounds (e.g., ulcers, burns, surgical wounds, lacerations, abrasions) for minimal wound maceration, allowing wound debridement, and creating a moist wound-healing environment.
