简要总结
The fluid handling capacity of superabsorbent dressings varies depending on the design and construction. The use of effective advanced wound dressings is a promising strategy to achieve adequate absorption of wound exudate and malodour promoting wound healing. The aim of the current study is to determine whether there is a difference in the clinical performance of exudate absorption with two commonly used CE-marked superabsorbent dressings when used on VLUs in routine wound care.
As primary objective the dressing´s absorption performance and its ability to prevent skin maceration and leakage of the wound dressing will be investigated.
