AquaSite Hydrogel Sheet is a glycerine-based hydrogel sheet that is designed to protect wounds from drying out while absorbing and controlling excess fluid. It is also useful for rehydrating sloughy or necrotic tissue and promoting autolytic debridement, which is the natural breakdown of dead tissue by enzymes.
AquaSite Hydrogel Sheet is indicated for a variety of wounds, including stage I-IV pressure sores, surgical incisions, thermal burns, cuts, abrasions, and venous ulcers. AquaSite Impregnated Gauze Dressings comes in a 1 oz novel bellows tube. This makes them easy to apply, even in uneven or difficult-to-reach spaces.
