The difference between dressings and gauze


There are differences between dressings and gauze in terms of convenience, penetration, impact on wound surface, permeability, price, allergy rate, complexity, etc., but both need to be used under the guidance of a doctor.
1. Convenience: The convenience of applying is better than that of gauze. Applying is a relatively convenient dressing with adhesive tape around it, which can adhere to the skin and is not easy to fall off. There is no adhesive tape around the gauze, and after covering it, it needs to be reinforced with adhesive tape or bandages;
2. Penetration: The penetration of the application is not as good as that of gauze, and the application surface will be coated with a layer of hydrophobic coating. For wounds that need to be kept dry, gauze is a better choice;
3. The impact on the wound surface: The application is not easy to adhere to the wound surface, and the surface of the application is coated and relatively smooth. The wound surface is not easy to adhere to the application, while the gauze is easy to adhere to the wound surface. When changing dressing, the wound surface is prone to pain and exudation;
4. Permeability: The application is easy to penetrate, and the application is relatively flat and thin, with weak adsorption and exudation ability. For wounds with a lot of exudate, the application should not be chosen;
5. Price: The application price is more expensive than gauze, the application process is complex, there are many process flows, the storage time is long, and the price is relatively expensive;
6. Allergy rate: Due to the presence of dressings and adhesive tape, the probability of allergies is higher in patches than in gauze;
7. Complexity: The surface design of the application has multiple coatings that are suitable for different wounds, while the gauze is relatively single.

Why is seaweed fiber medical dressing so good for wounds

The seaweed fiber dressing also has hemostatic properties, because the dressing releases Ca2+in contact with wound exudate, which can accelerate the formation of prothrombin activators and accelerate the blood coagulation process. Gelatinization: After the alginate dressing absorbs the wound exudate, it forms a stable mesh gel on the surface of the wound to avoid wound immersion and create a microenvironment conducive to tissue growth for the wound. Accelerate wound healing: A slightly acidic, anaerobic or hypoxic, moderately moist wound environment accelerates the release of growth factors, stimulates cell proliferation, improves the ability of epidermal cells to regrow and move, and accelerates wound healing.


The main applications of dressings

Applied in nursing, home self-help care, outdoor sports, field first aid, sports, postoperative care, and various sports injuries, it has a significant auxiliary effect on limb sprains, soft tissue rubs, joint swelling and pain. It can control the swelling after the removal of bone injury plaster and achieve recovery function
