ALL Hydrofera Blue dressings are Non-Cytotoxic and have a bacteria indicator

Hydrofera Blue dressings do not release anything into the body, and therefore do not harm fibroblasts or growth factors that are essential to wound healing. Bacteria laden exudate is absorbed into the dressing where it is effectively killed. As this occurs, the dressing turns white. This is an indicator that there is bacteria in the wound and that its time to change the dressing.

Hydrofera Blue CLASSIC Debrides

In order for wounds to progress, slough and devitalized tissue must be removed. If it is not in your scope to debride, Hydrofera Blue CLASSIC mechanism of action provides safe, autolytic debridement.

Hydrofera Blue CLASSIC Flattens Rolled Wound Edges

If it is not in your scope to sharp debride the epibole (rolled wound edges) try this simple and effective option. Simply cut the dressing 1-2cm bigger than the wound to cover the edges.

Hydrofera Blue CLASSIC Specialty Dressings

The Tunneling dressing

Is ideal for tunnels and undermining sinus wounds. It has high tensile strength with easy insertion and removal. It continuously wicks bacteria laden exudate out of tunnels and wounds like these

The Ostomy Ring

Yeast is common in this area. Hydrofera Blue Ostomy ring kills 3 types of yeast and helps heal the skin.

TIP: Remember the “D-D Rule” DULL side DOWN on the skin (shiny side to the wafer)

Yeast

  • Candida albicans
  • Candida krusei
  • Candida glabrata

Hydrofera Blue CLASSIC fills depth and allows earlier use of disposable NPWT

See how a clinician saved >$1000 per month/per patient when transitioning from canister to disposable NPWT and made it faster and easier for home care nurses to do dressing changes. Also, Hydrofera Blue is safe to use over bone and tendon, in tunnels and undermining. It kills bacteria and flattens rolled wound edges. Please click on the poster below for more information on how CLASSIC was used with NPWT.

Hydrofera Blue HEAVY DRAINAGE is ideal under NPWT

The dressing can be used to fill tunnels to help wick bacteria laden exudate. Its safe to use over bone, tendon and overlap surrounding skin. It does not stick to, or grow into newly formed tissue and therefore does not cause pain at dressing change.

Hydrofera Blue READY-Border has no Silicone Interface which allows intimate contact of the foam with the wound

The dressing can be used to fill tunnels to help wick bacteria laden exudate. Its safe to use over bone, tendon and overlap surrounding skin. It does not stick to, or grow into newly formed tissue and therefore does not cause pain at dressing change.

This allows for uninterrupted absorption.

Its also repositionable ..no worries if you don’t apply the dressing exactly where you wanted, lift it, reposition and apply again.

It will still adhere and you will not have wasted a dressing.

All dressings are Non-Cytotoxic!

Hydrofera Blue READY-Transfer is ideal in these areas.

The dressing is made of a polyurethane foam which facilitates a high rate of moisture to transfer through the dressing and away from the wound bed. As the bacteria laden exudate passes through the dressing, the bacteria is effectively killed in the dressing. The dressing is soft, conformable and can be cut.
