In this study, absorption capacity of the most commonly used types of wound dressings was
measured with an objective, quantifiable, and easily reproducible method. The use of
objective measurements allowed us to perform an objective comparison of the capacity of
the different types of dressings. An experimental study was performed, in which the
absorptive capacity of polyurethane foams, alginate, hidrofiber, and hydrocolloid dressings
was measured by using a methodology designed by the researchers. Polyurethane foams …
