title: [Hydrogels in medicine. Origin and clinical use].
abstract: Hydrogels are a new revolutionary method used to dress wounds without using gauzes and cotton wool. Our hydrogels were produced by irradiation and are perfectly sterile and biocompatible. The innovation of this topical treatment permits direct contact of hydrogels on wounds and results in complete repair of wounds and ulcers that do not heal easily. The fundamental advantage are: disappearance of local pain, very good protection of wounds, easy removal of necrotic tissue, total adhesion on wounds and simple removal without pain, faster tissue repair.
