Wound Dressings

Wound Care Dressings have evolved significantly over the past few decades. Formerly, different variations of products were the staple for wound care. Although they are still widely used and effective, there are many new advanced designs to solve specific issues with wound treatment. These modern developments over the past few decades better address specific wound types and their corresponding care. Five major functions for wounds dressings currently exist. These functions are Debridement, Moisture Management, Wound Protection, Infection Management, and Odor Control.
