What type of wound can Hydrocoll be used on?
Hydrocoll is used on weakly to strongly secreting wounds in the granulation and epithelialisation phase. It can also be used on colonised wounds as the slightly acidic environment creates unfavourable conditions for bacterial growth and binds bacteria and dead cell debris in its gel structure. It is not suitable for infected wounds.
