XTRASORB HCS (Hydrogel Colloidal Sheet) is a clear novel hydrogel hydrocolloid combination super-absorbent wound dressing. XTRASORB HCS dressings combine a low water content hydrogel with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose to help hydrate non-exuding wounds and also absorb fluid from lightly to moderately exuding wounds. In the process, the fluid absorbed converts the dressing into a gel, binding it to the skin to reduce the risk of maceration while also keeping wound fluid away.
How it Works
As a latex-free dressing, XTRASORB HCS pairs a patented super-absorbent polymer (SAP) gel formulation with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and a water/glycerin hydrogel base. The result:
• Provides superior absorption compared to standard hydrocolloid dressings, drawing and holding onto more exudate while offering equal hydration.
• Requires fewer dressing changes, which lessens maceration and irritation risks to the wound bed and reduces wound care costs.
• Holds onto fluids and can absorb and reduce the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). This helps reduce infection risks and promotes more streamlined healing.
• Offers 50% water content, for soothing, cooling application and creating a moist wound-healing environment.
• Provides comfortable application and can be used on hard-to-dress wounds thanks to a non-adhesive, atraumatic formula that improves contact without damaging the wound bed.
• Remains fully clear for observing the wound.
• Won’t leave an odor — a common issue with most hydrocolloid dressings.
Usage
XTRASORB HCS non-adhesive dressings are ideal for:
• Pressure ulcers
• Venous leg ulcers
• Arterial ulcers
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Post-operative wounds
• Traumatic wounds
• First- and second-degree burns
• Donor sites
