Prontosan® from B Braun is a ready-to-use solution for cleansing chronic wounds based on Polyhexanide (PHMB) and Propylbetaine.
The surfactant in Prontosan® provides disaggregation of the bacterial biofilm and cleanses the wound. In addition, the spray produced by exerting gentle pressure on the bottle can physically remove residues from the wound bed. Prontosan® helps minimize trauma at dressing changes by reducing any damage to the newly formed granulation tissue and reducing pain.

- Promotes the creation of the proper moist environment
- Quickly and effectively cleanses the wound
- Controls the formation of unpleasant odors

Indications for use.
- Cleansing and moisturizing of:
- Pressure injuries
- Vascular injuries (arterial, venous, mixed)
- Diabetic foot
- Fistulas

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

Indications for use.

Prontosan® Wound Gel X by B. Braun is a gel for cleansing and moisturizing chronic wounds based on Polyesanide (PHMB) and Propylbetaine that provides lasting cleansing and decontamination of the wound bed between dressings.

Due to the special combination of its components (antimicrobial substance, polyhexanide and the surfactant betaine), Prontosan® Wound Gel X is ideal for preventing the formation of bacterial biofilm. Clinical tests, in fact, confirm that it is an effective barrier that can reduce microbial penetration through the dressing.

The accentuated density of the gel formulation, allows for high stability of the product on the wound bed and ease of application due to increased compactness. Prontosan® Gel X also contributes to the hydration of necrotic tissue and fibrin present in the wound bed, facilitating autolytic processes.

Askina Heel is a nonadhesive, hydrocellular, conformed heel dressing that is sterile and consists of a high-absorbency polyurethane foam in contact with the wound and an outer layer consisting of a polyurethane film that is vapor permeable and resistant to water and bacteria.

The choice of the elements of the two layers allows for:
- Protection of the lesion from shear forces
- Reduction of pressure exerted from the outside
- Protection of both malleoli
- Optimal exudate management
- Evaporation of excess moisture
- Free gas permeability between the lesion and the external environment
- Impermeability to liquids and bacteria
- Easy removal to check the condition of the lesion

Askina Heel is indicated for the management of moderately to heavily exuding, partial to full-thickness heel lesions such as:
- Stage I to IV pressure ulcers
- Surgical incisions
- Grade I and II burns Bilaminar structure:
1) Layer in contact with the lesion :
Hydrophilic absorbent structure consisting of polyurethane foam . The special microalveolar structure, ensures a high absorption capacity and a high ability to retain exudate even under compression. Absorption of exudate occurs in the vertical direction so that it does not remain on the wound bed. This also reduces, the possible extent of lateral absorption, toward the edges of the lesion, so as to minimize the risk of maceration of the perilesional skin. This avoids, in this way, that the dressing, although having a high absorption capacity, tends to return the absorbed liquid when it is subjected to pressure "sponge effect." Polyurethane foam has a significant thickness that provides high protection of the wound bed. In addition, the special structure of the polyurethane foam layer prevents any proliferation of granulation tissue within it, making removal of the dressing painless and atraumatic and promoting proper healing of the wound bed.

2) Outer layer.
Polyurethane film that is impermeable to liquids and bacteria and gas-permeable. The dressing has a special foam tape that facilitates its placement and keeps it in place. After applying the dressing, the special polyurethane foam tape is positioned by two Velcro supports, adjusting the level of tension. The dressing can be easily removed to check the condition of the wound. In case the use of a secondary dressing is preferred, Askina Heel can be placed without resorting to the use of the fixing tape. The absence of an adhesive border, ensures full respect for the perilesional skin and in particular the malleolar skin. The large contact surface area of the dressing, allows effective protection of both malleoli.
