IntraSite Gel, an amorphous hydrogel developed by Smith & Nephew, is designed as a Gel Applipak System for gentle yet efficient debridement of dead tissue. This hydrogel from Smith & Nephew further works to dissolve and absorb necrotic material and drainage. In later stages of wound healing, this dressing can be employed to provide a moist environment. The moisture levels of IntraSite Gel keep the surface from developing eschar, as well as keep the delicate granulation tissue wet and stimulate the migrating of epithelializing cells to facilitate healing. In short, this hydrogel promotes a moist wound-healing atmosphere.
IntraSite Gel Amorphous Hydrogel Dressing is non-invasive, so it won't cause any damage to viable tissue or the skin in the vicinity of the wound. This makes the product the perfect solution for all stages of the wound healing process. It rehydrates necrotic tissue and encourages quick debridement through its gentle yet effective action. It is also made with propylene glycol, a bacteriostatic ingredient that keeps the gel from drying out and enhances handling. Finally, its Applipak System allows easy, accurate, and precise application, even in hard to reach areas.
