INDICATIONS

REPLICARE is indicated for exudate absorption and the management of partial- to full-thickness wounds including ulcers (venous, arterial, diabetic, pressure), donor sites, surgical incisions, surgical excisions and burns (first and second degree).

DESCRIPTION

REPLICARE dressings are hydrocolloid dressings which are designed to create and maintain a moist wound environment by absorbing wound exudate to form a soft gel. The polyurethane film allows excess moisture to transpire through it, thus enhancing the ability of the dressing to manage exudate absorption. A moist wound environment is known to promote granulation tissue and epithelialization in wounds.
