Abstract:

OBJECTIVE

To provide ‘in use’ clinical data to support exudate management in patients with moderately to highly exuding wounds with bordered superabsorbent wound dressing with a silicone adhesive interface Zetuvit Plus Silicone Border (Paul Hartmann Ltd., Germany).

MATERIALS AND METHODS

This study was an open-labelled non-comparative study. Patients included in the study were selected by the clinical investigator(s) according to whether the patient required a dressing for the management of moderately to highly exuding wounds such as pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcer and arterial ulcers The patients were treated with A superabsorbent sterile wound dressing with bordered superabsorbent wound dressing with a silicone adhesive interface Zetuvit Plus Silicone Border (Paul Hartmann Ltd., Germany).

RESULTS

The Zetuvit Plus Silicone Border dressing had met the clinical objectives relating to exudate management, affirmed by the health professionals with a yes response in 94% of cases. Additionally, the health professionals rated the handling of exudate as excellent/good (78%) and most (80%) reported that they would use the superabsorbent wound dressing with a silicone adhesive interface again. Allied to this was the fact that the dressing improved the wound edge and periwound skin conditions (29% and 36% of patients, respectively). The dressing retained its position in 72% of patients. For wear time, the largest proportion of dressing changes, both pre-study and during the evaluation period, was every third day (45% and 44%, respectively). But there was a shift to extended wear time with use of the superabsorbent wound dressing with a silicone adhesive interface with 72% of patients’ dressing changes being every third day or longer.

CONCLUSION

The superabsorbent silicone border dressing was successful in managing wound exudate in moderately to highly exuding wounds and consequently this had a beneficial impact on the wound edge and periwound skin. Overall, there was a positive effect on wound bed preparation and in turn the healing response was progressive.
