There is a lack of literature on the characteristics and properties of fibre dressings available on the market. This study analysed the structure and absorption properties of different fibrous dressings used in wound treatment.
This in vitro experiment was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and absorption test. Dressings were compared before and after the gelling process which was then compared with the results of the absorption test.
A total of five samples were analysed. The SEM analysis demonstrated that there are differences in the gelling processes for each. In some cases, a formation of dead spaces was noticed. Despite a similar structure and mode of action, the dressings have different properties. Results were correlated with absorption measurements. There was a considerable difference in absorption capacity of individual dressings, which may further affect the capacity of the dressing to manage exudate.
Absorption of excess exudate and maintaining moisture balance in the wound environment are among the most important conditions of successful healing. Various fibrous dressings have different properties and clinicians should use this information to select the most appropriate dressing for the type of wound.
目前缺乏关于市场上纤维敷料特性和属性的文献。本研究分析了用于伤口治疗的不同纤维敷料的结构和吸收特性。
本体外实验采用扫描电子显微镜（SEM）和吸收测试进行。对敷料在凝胶化过程前后进行比较，然后将其与吸收测试结果进行比较。
共分析了五个样本。SEM分析表明，每个样本的凝胶化过程存在差异。在某些情况下，发现了死腔的形成。尽管敷料的结构和作用方式相似，但它们具有不同的特性。结果与吸收测量相关。各敷料的吸收能力存在相当大的差异，这可能进一步影响敷料处理渗出液的能力。
吸收多余的渗出液并维持伤口环境中的水分平衡是成功愈合的最重要条件之一。各种纤维敷料具有不同的特性，临床医生应利用这些信息为伤口类型选择最合适的敷料。
