Complementary

Flexible and comprehensive product solutions are often required in wound management. Complementary products include wound contact layers and impregnated sterile dressings for atraumatic dressing changes, and skin care products. This also includes a Total Contact Cast (TCC), which is a preferred treatment for diabetic foot care according to international guidelines.

Wound contact layers

These primary wound contact layers allow for atraumatic dressing changes and promote undisturbed wound healing – due to fewer necessary dressing changes. Furthermore, Cutimed® Cuticell® Contact, with its transparent silicone coating, allows for an easy wound inspection.

Ointment dressings

The open weave of these ointment dressings allows exudate to pass through into the absorbent secondary dressing and aids in atrumatic dressing changes. 

Skin care

Wound management must take skin care into consideration. Skin maceration, skin dryness or skin irritation can lead to wounds or healing complications. Skin care products can help to rebalance the moisture level in the skin or protect the skin from the damage and irritation caused by bodily fluids, such as digestive or wound fluids. 

Total contact cast

When considering treatment for DFUs, total contact casting is considered the gold standard for offloading and treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.
