Description
UrgoStart Plus Border Dressing is an all-in-one adhesive pad made of 4 unique layers that continuously clean, heal & close the wound sooner, maintain a moist environment optimal for healing and allow a gentle, pain free removal. It features poly-absorbent fibres that trap and retain exudate, slough and debris along with a TLC-NOSF healing matrix that reduces excess matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), rebalancing the wound and closing it sooner. It also has a highly absorbent layer, and silicone backing that ensure it can manage highly exuding wounds, while being shower-proof and easy to apply and reposition.
UrgoStart Plus Border Dressing can be used for moderately to heavily exuding wounds at all wound bed stages – sloughy (0-100%), granulating and epithelialising - including leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries and other wounds at risk of being long-lasting.
