Aquaconductive Technology of Qwick Dressing
It is the mechanism by which the three layers of Qwick wound dressing pull exudate away or out of the wound to help create an optimal, moist wound-healing environment
- Blue Top Layer: Faces away from the wound and serves as an indicator of how the dressing should be applied. This layer is not occlusive and exudate can pass through it into a secondary dressing
- Storage Layer: Consists of superabsorbent polyacrylate fibers designed to absorb and retain large amounts of exudate
- Wound Contact Layer: It is composed of a blend of hydrophilic fibers. Hydrophilic fibers attract the exudate, resulting in fast wicking. Hydrophobic fibers regulate and channel absorption to facilitate vertical transfer of the exudate from the wound into the storage layer of Qwick
