AQUACEL® Ribbon dressings are a unique type of wound dressing designed to provide effective protection and absorbency for hard-to-reach wounds. These dressings are made using the same advanced hydrofibre technology as AQUACEL® Extra dressings, but are shaped in a long, thin ribbon format that can be easily threaded through tunnels and sinuses to reach deeper wounds.
One of the key benefits of AQUACEL® Ribbon dressings is their ability to absorb and retain large amounts of wound exudate, while also maintaining a moist wound environment that promotes healing. The hydrofibre technology in the dressings transforms into a soft, gel-like substance when it comes into contact with wound exudate, which helps to create a seal around the wound and prevent fluid from escaping.
AQUACEL® Ribbon dressings are also very easy to use and can be applied quickly and easily without the need for any additional products or accessories. They are available in a range of sizes and can be cut to size if necessary. The ribbon format of the dressings also makes them an excellent choice for hard-to-reach wounds that cannot be easily accessed by traditional dressings.
In addition to their high absorbency and ease of use, AQUACEL® Ribbon dressings are also designed to be gentle on the skin and can be used on even the most sensitive skin types. They are non-adhesive, which means that they won't stick to the wound bed or surrounding skin, making them easy to remove without causing any trauma to the wound.
Overall, AQUACEL® Ribbon dressings are an innovative and effective solution for managing hard-to-reach wounds. Their advanced hydrofibre technology, easy-to-use ribbon format, and gentle yet effective design make them an excellent choice for healthcare professionals and patients alike.
Note: Daylong Direct recommends that you contact a nurse, GP or pharmacist to ensure that the wound care product is appropriate for you.
