IVF Hartmann Hydocolloid verb

Hydrocoll is a self-adhesive, absorbent hydrocolloid dressing with a semipermeable backing that is impermeable to bacteria and water. The hydrocolloid transforms into a gel upon contact with wound exudate, creating a moist environment that stimulates granulation and epithelialization. It is suitable for the moist treatment of clinically non-infected, lightly to moderately exuding wounds, particularly wounds with poor healing potential. In the presence of devitalized tissue, Hydrocoll facilitates autolytic debridement by creating a moist interface between the wound and the dressing. Hydrocoll Thin is generally used for wounds that are dry or contain minimal exudate.
