Frequently Asked Questions

What type of wounds require DuoDERM® Hydroactive® Gel?

It is used for dry, necrotic, or sloughy wounds that need added moisture to heal.

How does DuoDERM® Hydroactive® Gel support autolytic debridement at a cellular level?

The gel maintains optimal moisture at the wound interface, enabling endogenous enzymes and macrophages to break down devitalized tissue without damaging healthy cells.

Why is moisture donation critical in necrotic wounds?

Dry necrotic tissue prevents cellular migration and enzyme activity. Moisture donation softens eschar, allowing controlled tissue breakdown and wound progression.
