WELCOME TO 21ST CENTURY WOUND CARE
“The development of specific diagnostic tests for use in wounds has the potential to revolutionize their treatment, and help improve standards of wound care (while) aiding in the cost effective use of limited resources.”World Union of Wound Healing Societies. Principles of best practice: A consensus document: MEP Ltd. London, 2008.
research suggests that wounds that heal well have a lower overallprotease activity than those that heal poorly. As a result, a test that readily provides this information might be clinically useful in understanding how well a wound is healing, and whether an intervention that modulates protease activity may be needed.

SILVERCEL® NON-ADHERENT ANTIMICROBIAL DRESSING WITH SILVERWHAT IS IT?sILVeRCeL® NoN-ADhereNT Dressing is the next generation of Silver Antimicrobial Dressing with the unique feature of a Non-Adherent layer that maximizes protection of the wound bed, particularly at dressing change.The unique composition: a mixture of alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and silver coated nylon fibres manages exudate effectively in infected or heavily colonised wounds. The optimally spaced perforations on the unqiue easyLIFt® film layer keeps the dressing simple and convenient to use, minimizing pain and trauma at dressing change for your patients.
HOW DOES IT WORK? sILVeRCeL® NoN-ADhereNT is designed to absorb and retain high amounts of exudate, while allowing easy, intact and atraumatic pain free removal from the wound bed.1
The silver ions within the dressing protect the wound from bacterial contamination.1
SILVERCEL® NON-aDHeReNt – designed not to stick • Maintains a sustained release of silver ions for up to 7 days in vitro 1 • Stays strong for intact removal, even when wet 2 • optimally spaced perforations allow ‘free flow’ of exudate into the dressing,
and also ensure the dressing stays intact • Conforms to the wound bed for complete coverage when moist, and is
designed not to stick to the wound bed at dressing change • sILVeRCeL® NoN-ADhereNT has been proven to be 75% Less Adherent than
the market leading silver dressing 3
• effective against over 150 pathogens including MrSA, MrSe and Vre 2
INDICATIONS: May help reduce infection in moderate to heavily exuding partial and full-thickness wounds including: • Pressure ulcers • Venous ulcers • Diabetic ulcers • Donor sites • Traumatic and surgical woundsSuitable for use under medical supervision, in the management of infected wounds, or wounds which have an increased risk of infection.

SILVERCEL® ANTIMICROBIAL DRESSING WHAT IS IT?sILVeRCeL® is a sterile, non-woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and silver coated nylon fibres. The unique composition of sILVeRCeL® is designed to manage exudate and help control infected or heavily colonised wounds.
HOW DOES IT WORK? sILVeRCeL® has a number of features that can help with controlling Infection: • sILVeRCeL® minimizes the risk of maceration and leakage1, 2 and has been
proven to absorb and retain fluid even under compression • In vitro studies show that the level of silver released from sILVeRCeL® is
maintained beyond 7 days 3
• Designed not to break up in the wound 1,4
• sILVeRCeL® maintains its strength within a moist wound environment 1,4
• effective against over 150 pathogens including MrSA and Vre 2
INDICATIONS: sILVeRCeL® is intended for use in the management of all moderate to heavily exuding partial and full thickness chronic wounds including: pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, donor sites, traumatic and surgical wounds. As the product contains alginate it may assist in supporting the control of minor bleeding in superficial wounds. It is also suitable for use under medical supervision, in the management of infected wounds, or wounds in which there is an increased risk of infection.
HOW DO I USE IT? applicationFold or cut to the size of the wound and apply directly to the wound. Loosely pack deep wounds ensuring that the dressing does not overlap the edges of the wound.Secure in position with a non-occlusive secondary dressing like TIeLLe® hydropolymer dressing.

INADINE® PVP-I NON-ADHERENT DRESSING WHAT IS IT?INaDINe® PVP-I Non-Adherent Dressing consists of a low adherent knitted viscose fabric impregnated with a polyethylene glycol (PeG) base containing 10% Povidone Iodine; equivalent to 1.0% available iodine.INaDINe® Dressings are designed to protect the wound, even if infected.
HOW DOES IT WORK? The Povidone molecule provides an effective, and controlled release of iodine. The polyethylene glycol provides a water-soluble environment, which allows the Iodine to reach the bacteria in the wound. INaDINe® Dressing has long been established for use in wound care, its features include: • Povidone Iodine controls bacteria by reducing bacterial load and inhibits
infection 1-3
• Povidone Iodine is a broad spectrum antimicrobial 1-3
• Safe for use on adults and children and in combination with systemic antibiotics 1-3
INDICATIONS: INaDINe® Dressing is designed to protect the wound, even if infected. INaDINe® Dressing is indicated for the management of ulcerative wounds and may also be used for the prevention of infection in minor burns and traumatic skin loss injuries.
HOW DO I USE IT? applicationApply directly to the wound or burn site. To ensure INaDINe® dressing stays in situ, use with a secondary dressing like TIeLLe® hydropolymer dressing.Changing the dressingWhen the colour of the dressing turns to white, this indicates the loss of antiseptic efficacy and this is when the INaDINe® dressing should be changed.

PROMOGRAN® PROTEASE MODULATING MATRIX WHAT IS IT?PROMOGRaN® matrix is sterile, freeze-dried composite of 55% collagen and 45% oxidised regenerated cellulose (orC). PROMOGRaN® matrix is designed to promote an optimal healing environment. 1
With PROMOGRaN® matrix stalled wounds close: faster,1,2 cost effectively. 1,3,4
In the presence of exudate the PROMOGRaN® matrix transforms into a soft and conformable, biodegradable gel: this allows contact with all areas of the wound.
HOW DOES IT WORK? PROMOGRaN® matrix has been proven to reduce levels of proteases such as MMPs and elastase. This may restore the balance of the wound microenvironment, promoting granulation tissue and helping the wound close.5
reducing MMP and elastase activity has been shown to reduce wound surface area.Collagen/orC is more effective than collagen alone: • Binds and inactivates 3 times more proteases 5,6,7
• enhances granulation tissue formation 8
• reduces bacterial growth 5-7, 9
• Protects growth factors 10
INDICATIONS: PROMOGRaN® matrix is indicated for the management of all woundshealing by secondary intent which are clear of necrotic tissue, including: • Diabetic ulcers • Venous ulcers • Pressure ulcers • Ulcers caused by mixed vascular aetiologies • Traumatic and surgical wounds PROMOGRaN® matrix has demonstrated haemostatic properties.PROMOGRaN® matrix can be used under compression therapy.
HOW DO I USE IT? Preparation1. Prepare the wound per standard wound care protocol and debride when necessary. 2. PROMOGRaN® matrix may be used when visible signs of infection are present in the
wound area only when proper medical treatment addresses the underlying cause.

TIELLE® HYDROPOLYMER FOAM DRESSINGSWHAT IS IT?The tIeLLe® Family has a unique design compared to ordinary foams; it contains LiquaLock® technology, which cleverly retains exudate while also letting moisture vapour pass through the dressing, helping to provide an optimal moist wound healing environment. Managing exudate better helps wounds heal faster and increases patient comfort. For instance, in a clinical evaluation of 6993 patients tIeLLe® dressings were proven to be clinically efficacious in all wound types studied, with 95% healing or improvement after 4 weeks of treatment, and improved the patients’ quality of life.1
The tIeLLe® Family comes in a wide range of sizes, shapes and absorbencies, allowing you to find a dressing that suits your patients’ needs.
HOW DOES IT WORK? Comfort for the wound • As exudate is absorbed by the dressing, it is designed to expand and
conform to the contours of the wound bed, which helps minimize exudate build-up and the chance of maceration. The super absorbent layer of tIeLLe® Plus and tIeLLe® Max absorbs up to 30x its own weight.5
• Under normal use, the LiquaLock® technology locks fluid into the cell walls, which means reduced potential for it to be released back into the wound2-4
• The vapour-permeable backing allows moisture vapour to transfer through the back of the dressing, allowing for absorption of additional exudate
• TIeLLe dressings do not gel or disintegrate- for easy removal and less pain
Comfort for you • The adhesive dressings allow repositioning as needed on initial application,
yet stays were it is placed • The non-adhesive dressings are cut-able and can be used for all levels of
exudate
Comfort for the patient • tIeLLe® and tIeLLe® Plus control leakage and odour for better patient
quality of life1,5

NU-DERM® HYDROCOLLOID DRESSINGWHAT IS IT?NU-DeRM® hydrocolloid Dressing is a sterile hydrocolloid wound dressing designed to maintain a moist wound environment. The NU-DeRM® hydrocolloid Wound Dressings consist of a wound contact layer of hydrocolloid and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The top layer is either a semi-permeable polyurethane film (Border and Thin), or a film-coated polyurethane foam (Standard). • The Border product is conformable, has a top layer of low-friction film, and has
bevelled edges all around the product - the border itself is a continuation of the skin-friendly hydrocolloid adhesive material
• The Standard product has a top layer of foam, rounded corners, and is uniform in thickness
• The semi-transparent Thin product, which is conformable and has a top layer of low-friction film, allows close and easy monitoring of the wound bed without dressing removal
HOW DOES IT WORK? • helps maintain a moist wound healing environment and encourages autolytic
debridement, thus enabling granulation to proceed under optimum conditions • Designed to protect low risk wounds against bacterial contamination* • The dressing material interacts with wound exudate to form a soft gel - due
to the matrix formulation of the hydrocolloid material, most of the gel is removed together with the dressing, resulting in little or no damage to the newly formed tissue
• The dressings are waterproof and remain in place during showering
INDICATIONS: • NU-DeRM® Border and NU-DeRM® Standard are primarily indicated for the
management of light to moderately exuding pressure sores and leg ulcers • NU-DeRM® Thin is primarily indicated for the management of superficial dry/
lightly exuding wounds, post-operative wounds, and superficial wounds and abrasions; however it is also useful on small wounds towards the end of the healing phase
HOW DO I USE IT? application1. remove the large part of the protective backing paper from the dressing.
