Medihoney™ dressings have been shown to improve healing rates by up to 30% compared to standard dressings (Reference: Robson, V., Dodd, S. and Thomas, S. (2009) Standardized antibacterial honey (Medihoney™) with standard therapy in wound care: randomized clinical trial.
Journal of Advanced Nursing. 65(3): 565-575.)Because they contain a very high percentage of unique
Medihoney™ Antibacterial Honey,
Medihoney™ dressings are able to work in the presence of wound fluid, blood and tissue, promoting an optimal healing environment.
Due to their versatility,
Medihoney™ dressings can be used in all stages of wound healing. All
Medihoney™ dressings provide an antibacterial barrier that inhibits bacteria, reducing the risk of infection.
Medihoney™
dressings are the first honey-based products to be cleared for use in the management of chronic & acute wounds and burns in the US and in Canada.
All
Medihoney™ dressings are CE marked.
When wound fluid is present, it is recommended that the intact skin around the wound be protected using
Medihoney™ Barrier Cream. It is also recommended that the dressing is covered and held in place with an absorbent secondary dressing or bandage.
