The advanced wound care products such as film and foam dressings, hydrogels, alginates and hydrocolloids keeps the wound hydrated to encourage healing without occluding the wound. Health care professionals are emphasizing on the importance of keeping a wound moderately damp and are prescribing advanced wound care products for more severe wounds such as amputations and deep laceration. This type of treatment is expensive, however, prominent due to its effectiveness and faster healing process. Besides healing, advanced wound care products have various advantages over conventional wound care products viz. constant temperature around the wound, regulate oxygen flow, provide barrier to bacterial & microbial penetration, reduces complications, and protect wound from infection.

Increasing number of diabetic patients, rising incidences of chronic wounds, growing geriatric population and other debilitating diseases have increased the demand for advanced wound care products.
