Description
Exufiber is a sterile non-woven gelling fiber dressing made from highly absorbent polyvinyl alcohol fibers. It can be used to manage a wide range of exuding wounds including cavity wounds, leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, and surgical wounds. Upon contact with wound exudate, Exufiber transforms into a gel that facilitates moist wound healing and ease of removal during dressing changes.
Exufiber has a high absorption and retention capacity, reducing the risk of leakage and maceration. You can use Exufiber in combination with Mepilex Border all-in-one bordered foam dressings.
When to use Exufiber: Exufiber can be used on a wide range of exuding wounds, including pressure ulcers, leg and foot ulcers, partial thickness burns, surgical wounds, donor sites, and chronic wounds.
How Exufiber works: The mechanically secured fibers are made of a strong synthetic material that swells upon contact with fluid, locking it securely away. This gives Exufiber higher fluid retention rates compared to a leading gelling fiber.
Hydrolock Technology – Gelling fiber dressings reinvented: Exufiber is made using a patented processing method, with a different material from traditional gelling fibers. Our Hydrolock Technology locks in exudate, blood, and bacteria. Viewed under a microscope, you can see that Exufiber is packed full of tightly entangled fibers that minimize the free space for fluid or exudate to flow, which in turn boosts the entire dressing’s integrity. The result is excellent tensile strength for easy removal and superior fluid retention to minimize the risk of leakage and maceration.
