About DM00303E-Box Dermacol Collagen Matrix Wound Dressing, 4 X 4
What is DM00303E-Box Dermacol Collagen Matrix Wound Dressing, 4 X 4?
The DM00303E-Box Dermacol Collagen Matrix Wound Dressing, 4 x 4 is a sterile, biocompatible dressing designed for advanced wound management. Made with a blend of collagen, sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and EDTA, it transforms into a soft gel upon contact with wound exudate, maintaining a moist healing environment. This promotes granulation tissue formation and epithelialization, making it ideal for stalled or chronic wounds that require optimized conditions for recovery.
Key features
- Moist Wound Healing — Forms a gel to maintain optimal moisture balance for tissue regeneration.
- Dual MMP Inhibition — Collagen matrix and EDTA work together to inhibit matrix metalloproteinases, supporting healing in chronic wounds.
- Exudate Management — Sodium alginate and CMC absorb excess fluid while preventing dryness.
- Trim-to-Fit Design — Can be cut or layered for use in deep or irregularly shaped wounds.
- Broad Indications — Suitable for pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, burns, and surgical dehiscence.
- Sterile Single-Use — Ensures safety and reduces infection risk in sensitive wound care applications.
- Biocompatible Materials — Utilizes natural collagen to support cell migration and tissue repair.
