ABSTRACT:
In various embodiments, a wound dressing includes a wound treatment composition including at least one absorbent or adsorbent compound contained within a sheath having an operatively inner and an operatively outer wall. A surface of the operatively inner wall of the wound dressing, that is to contact a wound in use, is a substantially smooth continuous surface conveniently of a plastic inner wall, selected for easy release from a wound. The inner wall is perforated to enable exudates or slough to pass therethrough. In some embodiments, a wound treatment composition includes an absorbent material, preferably silica, for adsorbing moisture on or around a wound and a collagen, conveniently gelatin.
