title: Wound fluid management in wound care: the role of a hydroconductive dressing.
abstract: ﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿ A case series was conducted to evaluate the clinical experience with a new hydroconductive wound dressing, that appears to help facilitate the removal of necrotic tissue and other deterrents to wound healing while preserving healthy granulation tissue in a wound. Eight patients were treated with the dressing which has a proprietary technology that draws fluid away from the wound. The dressing was used on a variety of wound types and all wounds went on to heal by secondary intention. There were no adverse effects noted by any patient in the case series. Larger patient studies are needed to corroborate the positive clinical results that were observed in this series of patients. ﻿﻿﻿.
