Medline MSC6102 SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel 1oz

The Medline MSC6102 SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is a versatile, advanced wound care product designed to provide optimal moisture balance for wound healing. This 1-ounce hydrogel is formulated to promote a moist wound environment, which is essential for faster and more effective healing. SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is suitable for a variety of wound types, including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, first- and second-degree burns, and other wounds that require a moisture-enhanced environment for recovery.

Key Features

Moisture-Retentive Formula: SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is specifically designed to provide moisture to dry or minimally draining wounds. The gel’s composition helps maintain a moist wound environment, which is proven to support cellular regeneration, promote autolytic debridement (the body's natural process of breaking down dead tissue), and reduce the risk of scab formation. This moisture-balancing ability helps accelerate healing and prevent complications associated with dry wounds.

Cooling and Soothing Effect: When applied, SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel delivers a soothing and cooling sensation to the wound site, providing immediate relief from pain or discomfort. This is especially beneficial for burns, abrasions, and wounds with irritated or inflamed tissue. The hydrogel's cooling effect helps calm the skin, reducing discomfort and enhancing patient comfort during the healing process.

Clear, Non-Oily Gel: SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel has a clear, non-oily formula that spreads easily over the wound surface without leaving residue or stickiness. This makes the product easy to apply and ensures that it can be used in conjunction with dressings or other wound care products. The gel’s clarity allows for wound visibility during application, enabling caregivers and medical professionals to monitor the wound’s progress without needing to remove the gel.

Promotes Autolytic Debridement: The hydrogel encourages autolytic debridement by softening and loosening non-viable tissue, promoting the natural breakdown and removal of dead or necrotic tissue from the wound bed. This process is essential for healthy tissue formation and faster wound healing, as it removes barriers to new cell growth and reduces the risk of infection.

Safe and Non-Cytotoxic: SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is safe to use on various skin types and is non-cytotoxic, meaning it does not damage healthy tissue. This makes it ideal for use on sensitive or fragile skin, as well as on wounds in delicate areas. The hydrogel is gentle, reducing the risk of adverse reactions while still being highly effective in promoting wound healing.
Indicated for a Variety of Wounds: SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is suitable for a wide range of wound types, including:

Pressure ulcers (stages I-IV): Provides moisture and supports healing in pressure sores by maintaining a moist wound environment.
Diabetic ulcers: Supports wound healing in diabetic patients by promoting a balanced moisture environment for chronic wounds.
First- and second-degree burns: The cooling and soothing properties make it ideal for burn wounds, reducing discomfort and promoting faster healing.
Surgical wounds: Promotes healing in post-surgical wounds by maintaining moisture balance and preventing scab formation.

Easy Application and Removal: The hydrogel comes in a convenient 1-ounce tube, allowing for controlled application. Its smooth texture makes it easy to spread over the wound surface evenly, ensuring full coverage. The gel is also easy to remove during dressing changes without causing trauma to the wound bed, reducing discomfort for the patient and allowing for atraumatic dressing changes.

Latex-Free and Hypoallergenic: SKINTEGRITY Hydrogel is latex-free and hypoallergenic, making it safe for patients with latex sensitivities or allergies. Its gentle formula is designed to minimize the risk of skin irritation, ensuring that it can be used on sensitive skin or in cases where the patient has known allergies.
