Hyiodine® is a sterile anti-adhesive medical device based on sodium hyaluronate. It sets up ideal moist environment in the wound and speeds up the healing process. Hyaluronan creates a kind of scaffolding that surrounds and supports tissues. It's high affinity to water helps to maintain the extracellular environment sufficiently hydrated, allowing for regulatory peptides and proteins to interact with cells. Application of Hyiodine® influences positively on the healing process of wounds by drawing water and growth factors from the surrounding dermis onto the affected area. Iodine complex protects the applied hyaluronic acid from degradation by bacterial enyzmes and works as antimicrobial agent. Hyiodine® has unique regenerative and antiadhesive effects. It protects surrounding skin from maceration and improves conditions for wound granulation and epithelisation. Hyiodine® can be used for therapy of all kinds of wounds
• diabetic ulcers • wound dehiscence after surgery • leg ulcers • undermined and infected wounds
• bed sores • difficult-to-heal skin defects • acute wounds • dry or heavily exudating wounds
• in all phases of the healing process
What is Sodium Hyaluronate ?
It is a substance with unique properties, a natural part of all the organs in the human body. For expample it keeps our skin perfectly hydrated and enables us to move our joints without any problems. As a substance occurring naturally in the body, it is entirely non-toxic. In sites of tissue injury (during wound healing), sodium hyaluronate accumulation is enhanced, what stimulates process of tissue repair. Ability of skin to produce sodium hyaluronate is reduced during the skin ageing. This results in decreased ability of wound repair.
