Wound healing is a delicate process that requires proper care, the right products, and ongoing attention to prevent infection and promote recovery. Whether you’re managing surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, burns, or everyday cuts and scrapes, choosing the right wound care solutions can make all the difference in healing time and comfort.
At Prism, we offer a comprehensive range of advanced wound care products, including dressings, bandages, gauze, gels, and medical supplies, designed to support every stage of the healing process.
Understanding the Wound Healing Process
The body heals wounds through a series of stages, and each stage requires different types of care:
1️⃣ Hemostasis – The body stops the bleeding by forming a clot.
2️⃣ Inflammation – White blood cells fight infection and remove damaged tissue.
3️⃣ Proliferation – New tissue forms, and the wound begins to close.
4️⃣ Remodeling/Maturation – The wound fully heals, and scar tissue strengthens.
Using the right wound care products at each stage helps to prevent complications, minimize pain, and promote faster recovery.
Choosing the Right Wound Care Products
1. Wound Dressings: Protecting & Promoting Healing
Selecting the correct dressing is crucial for moisture balance, infection prevention, and optimal healing.
✔ Hydrocolloid Dressings – Ideal for light to moderate wounds, these dressings seal out bacteria while maintaining a moist environment to promote healing.
✔ Foam Dressings – Absorb excess fluid while keeping the wound moist, making them great for moderate to heavily draining wounds.
✔ Alginate Dressings – Made from seaweed-derived fibers, these dressings are perfect for highly exudating wounds and help with faster healing.
✔ Transparent Film Dressings – Provide a protective barrier while allowing easy monitoring of the wound without removal.
2. Bandages & Gauze: Essential Wound Protection
Bandages and gauze are critical components of any wound care routine, providing absorption, protection, and stabilization.
✔ Sterile Gauze Pads & Rolls – Used for cleaning, dressing, and protecting wounds of all sizes.
✔ Compression Bandages – Support circulation, reduce swelling, and help control bleeding for post-surgical wounds or chronic conditions like venous ulcers.
✔ Adhesive Bandages – Perfect for minor cuts, scrapes, and abrasions, offering a convenient and effective barrier against dirt and bacteria.
3. Antimicrobial Wound Care: Preventing Infection
One of the biggest risks in wound healing is infection, which can delay recovery and lead to serious complications. Prism offers a variety of antimicrobial solutions to protect wounds and speed up healing.
✔ Silver-Infused Dressings – Combat bacterial growth while providing a moist healing environment.
✔ Hydrogel Wound Dressings – Help rehydrate dry wounds, reduce pain, and promote faster healing.
✔ Medical-Grade Honey Dressings – Naturally antibacterial, honey dressings help reduce infection and inflammation while soothing the wound.
4. Wound Cleansers & Topical Treatments
Keeping a wound clean and free of debris is essential for proper healing. Prism provides a full range of wound cleansers and skin protectants to support recovery.
✔ Saline Wound Cleansers – Gently flush out debris without irritating the wound.
✔ Antiseptic Solutions – Kill bacteria and help prevent infections in high-risk wounds.
✔ Barrier Creams & Skin Protectants – Prevent moisture-related skin damage, especially for patients at risk of pressure ulcers.
