Product Info
Pharmacoll® Comfort is a gelatin free hydrocolloid adhesive wound dressing laminated to a semi permeable, bacteria proof, virus proof and waterproof polyurethane film backing individually packed and sterilized by radiation. The hydrocolloid is present as an island pad and has an adhesive Polyurethane film border.
Pharmacoll® Comfort forms a gel upon absorbing wound exudates providing a moist wound environment, supporting granulation and epithelialization. Gel formation prevents Pharmacoll® Comfort from adhering to wounds, and dressing can be removed without causing pain and without damaging the granulation and epithelial tissue.

- Semi-permeable, waterproof, bacteria proof and virus proof polyurethane backing, protects wound from moisture and bacteria.
- High absorption capacity of Pharmacoll® Comfort binds away excess exudates prolonging dressing change intervals.

When the Pharmacoll® dressing comes into contact with wound exudates, the hydrocolloid swells and forms a gel that covers the wound and maintains moisture. This gel continues absorbing the wound fluid and minimizes adherence to the wound. When the dressing is changed, the wound stays protected by a film of gel.
- Clean wound area.
- Evaluate the wound and select the dressing size to allow 2.5 cm (1 inch) of the hydrocolloid adhesive to extend beyond the wound edge.
- Open the pouch and handle the dressing using gloves/forceps.
- Remove the release liner from the dressing.
- Center the dressing over the wound and the periwound area, then gently press the adhesive side of the dressing.
- Care should be taken to avoid unnecessary stretching of the dressing, which can result in mechanical trauma to the wound and surrounding skin.

Repeat process from other side until all sections of the frame are removed. “In case of Pharmacoll® Comfort and Pharmacoll® Comfort Plus “.
