Abstract
Gelling-fibre dressings have been found to be a rapid and effective tool for exudate management. Suprasorb Liquacel Pro is a soft, conformable non-woven dressing made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and strengthening cellulose fibres. When it comes into contact with wound exudate or blood, the absorbent dressing forms a gel, creating a moist wound environment. Cell debris and bacteria in the exudate are retained inside the fibre dressing and removed during the dressing change. The high vertical absorption of exudate into the fibre dressing protects the wound environment and the wound edge, thus supporting the healing process. Suprasorb Liquacel Ag has additional antimicrobial abilities with the inclusion of nanosilver technology, shown to be effective in killing bacteria and managing bioburden.
研究发现,胶凝纤维敷料是一种快速有效的渗出物管理工具。Suprasorb Liquacel Pro 是一种由羧甲基纤维素钠和增强纤维素纤维制成的柔软、适形的无纺布敷料。当它接触到伤口渗出物或血液时,吸水敷料就会形成凝胶,从而创造出湿润的伤口环境。渗出物中的细胞碎片和细菌被保留在纤维敷料中,并在更换敷料时被清除。纤维敷料对渗出液的垂直吸收率很高,可保护伤口环境和伤口边缘,从而促进伤口愈合。Suprasorb Liquacel Ag 采用纳米银技术,具有额外的抗菌能力,可有效杀死细菌并控制生物负荷。
期刊介绍:
Journal of Wound Care (JWC) is the definitive wound-care journal and the leading source of up-to-date research and clinical information on everything related to tissue viability. The journal was first launched in 1992 and aimed at catering to the needs of the multidisciplinary team. Published monthly, the journal’s international audience includes nurses, doctors and researchers specialising in wound management and tissue viability, as well as generalists wishing to enhance their practice.
In addition to cutting edge and state-of-the-art research and practice articles, JWC also covers topics related to wound-care management, education and novel therapies, as well as JWC cases supplements, a supplement dedicated solely to case reports and case series in wound care. All articles are rigorously peer-reviewed by a panel of international experts, comprised of clinicians, nurses and researchers.
Specifically, JWC publishes:
High quality evidence on all aspects of wound care, including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, the diabetic foot, burns, surgical wounds, wound infection and more
The latest developments and innovations in wound care through both preclinical and preliminary clinical trials of potential new treatments worldwide
In-depth prospective studies of new treatment applications, as well as high-level research evidence on existing treatments
Clinical case studies providing information on how to deal with complex wounds
Comprehensive literature reviews on current concepts and practice, including cost-effectiveness
Updates on the activities of wound care societies around the world.
