title: Wound care: Askina Transorbent and Askina Biofilm Transparent.
abstract: Selecting the correct dressing for a wound can be complicated as there are so many products from which to choose. The selection process is made easier once the healthcare professional has performed a holistic assessment. This article discusses some of the principles of wound management and the efficacy of Askina Transorbent and Askina Biofilm, two new products from B/Braun. Both of these maintain the moist environment required for optimum wound healing to take place.
