PRONTOSAN WOUND-GEL BOTTIGL. "WEST" 30ML

Prontosan® Wound Gel by B. Braun is a gel for cleansing chronic wounds based on Polyhexanide (PHMB) and Propyl-Betaine that helps reduce bacterial biofilm formation by disaggregating the mucopolysaccharide matrix synthesized by bacterial colonies present on the wound bed.

The density of the gel formulation, allows for a fair amount of stability in the wound bed and aids in the maintenance of the proper moist environment.
- Promotes the creation of the right moist environment and helps maintain it over time
- Cleanses the wound quickly and effectively
- Controls the formation of unpleasant odors
Prontosan® Wound Gel is particularly indicated in burns as it helps maintain bacterial colonization at reduced levels, keeps the wound hydrated, and minimizes trauma at dressing changes, greatly reducing pain and the subsequent need for supportive analgesic therapy.

The activity of Prontosan® Wound Gel is determined by the characteristics of several components:
- The surfactant contained provides for disaggregation of the bacterial biofilm and cleansing of the wound
- Hydroxyethyl cellulose provides the right viscosity to keep the product adhered to the wound bed
- Glycerol contributes to the maintenance of a moist environment by moisturizing the wound
- Polyaminopropyl-biguanide allows the solution to remain stable for 8 weeks after opening the bottle
