Perforated film absorbent dressings are suitable only for
wounds with mild to moderate amounts of exudate; they are
not appropriate for leg ulcers or for other lesions that
produce large quantities of viscous exudate. Dressings with
an absorbent cellulose or polymer wadding layer are suitable
for use on moderately to heavily exuding wounds.

Advanced wound dressings can be used for both acute and
chronic wounds. Categories for dressings in this section start
with the least absorptive, moisture-donating hydrogel
dressings, followed by increasingly more absorptive
dressings. These dressings are classified according to their
primary component; some dressings are comprised of several
Hydrogel dressings are most commonly supplied as an
amorphous, cohesive topical application that can take up the
shape of a wound. A secondary, non-absorbent dressing is
needed. These dressings are generally used to donate liquid
to dry sloughy wounds and facilitate autolytic debridement
of necrotic tissue; some also have the ability to absorb very
small amounts of exudate. Hydrogel products that do not
contain propylene glycol should be used if the wound is to be
treated with larval therapy. Hydrogel sheets have a fixed
structure and limited fluid-handling capacity; hydrogel sheet
dressings are best avoided in the presence of infection, and
are unsuitable for heavily exuding wounds.

The hydrating properties of sodium hyaluronate promote
wound healing, and dressings can be applied directly to the
wound, or to a primary dressing (a secondary dressing should
also be applied). The iodine and potassium iodide in these
dressings prevent the bacterial decay of sodium hyaluronate
Hyiodine ® should be used with caution in thyroid disorders.
Sodium hyaluronate 1.5%, potassium iodide 0.15%, iodine
Vapour-permeable films and membranes
Vapour-permeable films and membranes allow the passage
of water vapour and oxygen but are impermeable to water
and micro-organisms, and are suitable for lightly exuding
wounds. They are highly conformable, provide protection,
and a moist healing environment; transparent film dressings
permit constant observation of the wound. Water vapour
loss can occur at a slower rate than exudate is generated, so
that fluid accumulates under the dressing, which can lead to
tissue maceration and to wrinkling at the adhesive contact
site (with risk of bacterial entry). Newer versions of these
dressings have increased moisture vapour permeability.
Despite these advances, vapour-permeable films and
membranes are unsuitable for infected, large heavily
exuding wounds, and chronic leg ulcers. Vapour-permeable
films and membranes are suitable for partial-thickness
wounds with minimal exudate, or wounds with eschar. Most
commonly, they are used as a secondary dressing over
alginates or hydrogels; film dressings can also be used to
protect the fragile skin of patients at risk of developing
minor skin damage caused by friction or pressure.

Dressings with soft polymer, often a soft silicone polymer, in
a non-adherent or gently adherent layer are suitable for use
on lightly to moderately exuding wounds. For moderately to
heavily exuding wounds, an absorbent secondary dressing
can be added, or a soft polymer dressing with an absorbent
pad can be used. Wound contact dressings coated with soft
silicone have gentle adhesive properties and can be used on
fragile skin areas or where it is beneficial to reduce the
frequency of primary dressing changes. Soft polymer
dressings should not be used on heavily bleeding wounds;
blood clots can cause the dressing to adhere to the wound
surface. For silicone keloid dressings see under Specialised
