Dressing
A sterile or clean covering applied to a wound to protect it from contamination, absorb exudate, maintain moisture balance, and promote healing.
Wound dressing selection depends on wound type, depth, and drainage level. Moist wound healing promotes faster epithelialization. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is used for complex or heavily draining wounds.
