Who is EL00300-Each Drawtex Hydroconductive Dressing With Levafiber 2 X 2 for?
This dressing is ideal for individuals managing chronic wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, pressure sores, venous ulcers, and surgical sites with moderate exudate.

The EL00300-Each Drawtex Hydroconductive Dressing is best for patients with chronic, exuding wounds, especially those with diabetes or limited mobility.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Levafiber in Drawtex dressings?
▾
Levafiber is a proprietary fiber technology that transforms into a soft gel when in contact with wound fluid. It helps maintain a moist healing environment, supports autolytic debridement, and protects new tissue growth without adhering to the wound bed.
Does Drawtex dressing need a secondary dressing?
▾
Yes, Drawtex typically requires a secondary dressing such as gauze or a film cover to secure it in place and manage additional exudate. It is designed as a primary contact layer, not a standalone outer dressing.
How often should Drawtex be changed?
▾
Drawtex dressings are usually changed every 1 to 3 days, depending on wound exudate levels and clinical judgment. Heavily exuding wounds may require more frequent changes to maintain hygiene and performance.
Is Drawtex suitable for infected wounds?
▾
Drawtex can be used on colonized wounds under medical supervision but is not a substitute for antimicrobial therapy. Always consult a healthcare provider before using on infected or worsening wounds.
Can Drawtex be cut to fit different wound sizes?
▾
It is not recommended to cut Drawtex dressings, as this may compromise its integrity and fluid-handling properties. Use the 2x2 inch size as intended or select an appropriate size from the product line.
