Hydrocolloids are substances that convert into a gel when in contact with wound fluid. The moist wound environment created under the dressing speeds the natural healing process, reduces pain and protects against bacterial and other external contaminants.
Hydrocolloid dressings have been clinically shown to facilitate the removal of necrotic tissue and debris through the process of autolytic debriedement, reduce the risk of wound infection by providing an effective barrier to external contamination and bacteria, reduces pain and discomfort during dressing removal and application and create an environment that fosters the body’s natural healing process resulting in faster healing compared to gauze.
