Exufiber is a sterile nonwoven dressing made from highly absorbent polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibres. Hydrophilic fibres attract, absorb and lock-in high levels of exudate, transforming into a soft, conformable gel. This helps to break down slough by promoting autolytic debridement, supporting a clean wound bed. Small spaces between the fibres result in less free fluid within the dressing, supporting fluid retention, even under compression, reducing the risk of leakage and maceration. In contact with wound exudate, Exufiber transforms into a gel that facilitates moist wound healing and ease of removal during dressing change. Exufiber absorbs and retains wound exudate. Exufiber is available both as pad and ribbon dressings.
Intended to be used on a wide range of wounds with moderate to high amounts of wound fluid such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure injuries, partial-thickness burns, surgical wounds or donor sites and malignant wounds.
Do not use on patients with known hypersensitivity to the dressing or its materials
