Description
Why Choose Eurocell Hydro?
Superior Vertical Absorption: Absorbs fluid vertically (upwards) rather than laterally, preventing exudate from leaking onto wound edges and protecting healthy skin from maceration.
Gelling Action: The dressing turns into a soft gel that conforms perfectly to the wound bed contours, filling voids and preventing bacterial growth in dead spaces.
Painless Removal: Thanks to its gel nature, the dressing does not adhere to sensitive tissue or nerve endings, making dressing changes very comfortable and pain-free for the patient.
Self-Cleaning: Promotes “Autolytic Debridement” by hydrating necrotic tissue and facilitating its removal.

HOW TO USE?
(For Professionals)
Warning: The wound must be cleaned thoroughly before application.
Clean: Wash the wound with saline solution and dry the surrounding skin.
Select: Choose a size of Eurocell Hydro that covers the wound with a 1-2 cm overlap on the edges (as the dressing shrinks slightly upon saturation).
Apply: Apply the dry dressing directly onto the moist wound. (For deep wounds, use the Ribbon to fill the void to 80% to allow room for expansion).
Cover: Eurocell Hydro must be covered with an appropriate secondary dressing (such as gauze or foam) to secure it and maintain moisture.
Change: Change the dressing when it is fully saturated and turns into a gel (can stay up to 7 days depending on exudate level).
