Key Functions and Features

Key Functions and Features

  • Medstock Super Absorber is designed to continuously absorb excess exudate away from the wound surface. This creates a negative pressure gradient, which helps to:
    • Promote healing and reduce infection risk by stimulating entry of new blood vessels, leucocytes and fibrocytes into the wound
    • Reduces the risk of maceration by drawing exudate and inflammatory products away from the wound
    • Absorb and retain moderate to very high levels of exudate
    • Alleviate oedema and avoid maceration of the wound surface
    • Reduce the frequency of dressing changes
    • Reduce scar tissue formation
    • Safe for use under compression
