Elta Drawtex Hydroconductive Wound Dressing Rolls with Levafiber

Description

Elta Drawtex Hydroconductive Wound Dressing Rolls with Levafiber are the first hydroconductive non-adherent dressing with exclusive LevaFiber Technology that aids in effective wound bed preparation without damaging newly formed tissue. Drawtex is more than just a simple absorber because of its three types of action (capillary, hydroconductive, and electrostatic), made possible by exclusive LevaFiber Technology. The cross-action structure of the LevaFiber material, which is made of two types of highly absorbent materials, allows it to draw exudate and contaminating particles away from the wound bed. Cleans the wound environment, allowing for more effective wound care and faster healing.

  5. For heavy exudate, apply additional layers as necessary.
