31620 Integra LifeSciences, Corp. Medihoney® Hydrogel Dressing, 2.4" x 2.4", Non-Adhesive, Sterile, 10/bx, 5 bx/cs (cs)

A novel honey-based dressing for lightly to moderately exuding wounds. The dressing contains 80% Active Leptospermum Honey, can be used to cover a shallow wound or fill a deep wound (non-adhesive version only), and provides a moist environment conducive to wound healing. The adhesive version is specifically to be used as an all-in-one dressing, with no need for a secondary dressing to hold it in place. Active Leptospermum Honey has been shown to have several properties which assist in promoting an optimal healing environment. It has a low pH, and has been shown to help lower the overall wound pH, which is beneficial to chronic wounds. The honey is also highly osmotic, which assists in debridement and keeping the wound bed clean. This non-toxic dressing can be used as a cornerstone for wound bed preparation and throughout all the phases of wound healing.
