Hydrocolloids

Occlusive or semiocclusive dressings made of gelatin, pectin, polysaccharides or sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC). Hydrocolloid dressings are available in paste, powder, gel or sheet/wafer forms with a polyurethane or film outer layer (pastes and gels require secondary dressing). These dressings gel upon contact with wound exudate, providing a moist wound healing environment and promoting autolytic debridement.
