title: Granugel: hydrocolloid gel.
abstract: Hydrogels have been used for some time in wound management to maintain a moist wound interface and to aid the debridement of slough and necrotic tissue. Granugel (ConvaTec) is a combination of both hydrogel and hydrocolloid, which has been shown to be a safe and effective dressing that is also cost-effective.
