Indications

Management of wounds with high to very high exudate levels

Contraindications

No contraindications are currently known, but avoid using on wounds with very little or no fluids (risk of drying and adhesion). Only apply to tunnel cavities under appropriate monitoring conditions as the product expands as it absorbs fluids.
