title: Use of Exu-Dry in the management of a variety of exuding wounds.
abstract: Exu-Dry is a relatively new product that is designed to manage a variety of exuding wounds. It is a one-piece, multilayer, highly absorbent, non-adherent wound dressing. It is unique in construction, and incorporates a non-adherent wound contact layer which, it is suggested, makes dressing changes less painful and traumatic. This article explores the use of Exu-Dry in wounds, including heavily exuding wounds, burns, pressure ulcers, skin grafts, donor sites and fungating wounds.
