ABSORBENT LIPIDO-COLLOID FOAM DRESSING
UrgoTul Absorb is a soft-adherent foam dressing with TLC, comprised of:
- A soft-adherent TLC layer combined with an absorbent polyurethane foam pad
- A protective non-woven polyurethane backing.
MODE OF ACTION
When in contact with wound exudate, UrgoTul Absorb gels and creates a moist environment, promoting healing. UrgoTul Absorb stimulates fibroblast proliferation and ensures non-adherence and pain-free dressing changes.
The absorbent polyurethane foam pad ensures drainage of exudate, protecting the peri-wound skin against maceration.

INDICATIONS
UrgoTul Lite is indicated for the treatment of low to moderately exuding wounds in the epithelialisation stage (chronic wounds such as pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and acute wounds such as 2nd degree burns, skin abrasions, traumatic wounds, post-operative wounds) and for the local treatment of fungating wounds in combination with a specific treatment.
Due to the non-adhesive nature of the dressing, UrgoTul Lite is recommended in the treatment of wounds in which the surrounding skin is weakened.
