Description
The Convatec Aquacel Hydrofibre Wound Dressing Ribbon (2 cm × 45 cm) is a soft, flexible wound filler formulated from sodium carboxymethylcellulose fibres that transform into a cohesive gel when they contact wound exudate. This gel conforms precisely to the contours of deep or tunnelling wounds, maintaining a moist environment that supports granulation and reduces patient discomfort during dressing changes. The ribbon format is designed specifically for packing sinus tracts, cavity wounds, and undermined pressure injuries where a flat pad cannot reach.
Key Features
- Hydrofibre ribbon converts to a soft gel on exudate contact, conforming to wound shape
- Long 45 cm ribbon length accommodates deep tunnels and cavity wounds
- Vertical wicking action draws exudate away from the wound bed, reducing maceration risk
- Cohesive gel structure remains intact for easier, less traumatic removal
- Maintains a moist environment conducive to granulation tissue formation
- Sterile, single-use format compatible with a broad range of secondary dressings
