This PolyMem® formulation is especially designed for cavity wounds. Wic® expands within the wound cavity to fill dead space, keeping the wound bed clean and moisturized while absorbing excess fluid. Does not fragment or adhere to the wound bed, thereby reducing dressing change discomfort to the patient.
After my surgeon packed the cavity with this, the drainage finally slowed down within a couple days. It expands to fill the dead space so nothing pools in there, and changing it doesn't leave fibers behind like the gauze did. Genuinely a relief.
I was impressed how this filler stays put even in deeper wounds, keeping everything clean without drying out. It absorbs the excess fluid so well that dressing changes are much less messy now.
The expansion property of this cavity wound filler is fantastic — it conforms tightly to the wound space while keeping everything moist and clean. My healing has been noticeably faster since I started using it.
