Which Bedsore Dressing Works Best at Each Stage?

Choosing the right bedsore dressing is not a one-size-fits-all decision. The correct dressing type depends entirely on the stage of the pressure sore and how much fluid the wound is producing. Stage 1 sores with intact skin do best with a transparent film dressing that protects without covering too heavily. Stage 2 open sores with moderate fluid need hydrocolloid dressings that form a gel and keep the wound moist. Stage 3 deep wounds with heavy drainage need alginate dressings to absorb excess fluid safely. Stage 4 severe wounds need antimicrobial or hydrogel dressings to fight infection and support debridement. Before applying any dressing at any stage, apply Cimidaxil D+ wound healing spray to the wound surface. The spray creates an active antimicrobial barrier underneath the dressing that works continuously between each dressing change.
