The treatment with the pad promotes a blood circulation in the affected area and thus a faster and independent wound healing. Its rough and large-pored nature triggers a mechanical stimulus on the contact surfaces, which promotes a natural body reaction called "wound cleansing by secreting".
Schülke Wound Pad is ready to use and needs no further additives or agents and can be applied directly to or in the wound. Nevertheless, a combination with a wound irrigation solution is possible without any problems.
There are 3 different colors available, all of which have a different texture and are available as a set of 3 with 4 pieces per color (blue, red and white) or only the color blue with 10 pieces in a box.
