Many chronic wounds present cavities which a nonconforming dressing cannot eliminate.
When a gap forms beneath the dressing, unabsorbed exudate can pose a number of risks: maceration, damage to the periwound skin and delayed wound healing.

What are the challenges of non-healing, chronic wounds? Watch this video with Christoffer, Senior Manager, Coloplast Professional.
We're releasing a policy paper on non-healing wounds and the future of moist wound healing. Watch this space.
#woundcare#exudatemanagement
Patients with non-healing wounds suffer from pain, exudate & odour. Because of a rise in chronic diseases like diabetes, non-healing wounds will become increasingly prevalent in the future.
We’re releasing a new policy paper on the issue soon. Stay tuned.

Using 3DFit Technology, Coloplast’s Biatain Silicone reduces exudate pooling in the wound bed by filling the gap between the bed and the dressing.
Wound bed conformability marks the difference between a conventional and 3DFit Technology dressing.
Watch the video to learn more.
Optimal wound treatment is predicated on a good understanding of the wound's precise landscape.
To solve that problem we have come up with a new way of rendering complicated wounds in 3D.
Highly absorbing and strategically placed microcapillaries are central to Coloplast’s 3DFit® Technology – a foam technology that conforms to the wound bed and prevents exudate from pooling.
The properties of the foam may vary, as different wounds require different treatments.
Conformability’ refers to the ability of wound dressing to adhere to the contours of the surface of the wound. ‘Wound bed conformability’ refers to the ability of the dressing to conform accurately to the wound bed landscape – a feature of the Coloplast's 3DFit® Technology.
