Nu-Derm is a hydrocolloid wound dressing range designed to support the management of low to moderately exuding wounds by creating a moist healing environment that promotes natural tissue repair. When in contact with wound exudate, the dressing forms a soft gel, helping to maintain optimal moisture balance while protecting the wound from external contaminants.
The range is widely used in both clinical and community care settings for conditions such as superficial pressure injuries, minor burns, abrasions, and shallow ulcers. Its flexible, self-adhesive design allows it to conform comfortably to body contours, providing secure coverage while supporting patient mobility and comfort.
Nu-Derm dressings are designed to be occlusive yet breathable in a controlled way, helping to support autolytic debridement by softening and lifting non-viable tissue. This makes them particularly useful in wound bed preparation and in promoting a clean healing environment without frequent dressing changes.
The Nu-Derm range is developed by Smith & Nephew, a global leader in advanced wound care and surgical solutions focused on evidence-based healing technologies.
The portfolio includes products such as Nu-Derm Hydrocolloid Dressing, available in various shapes and sizes to suit different wound types and anatomical locations.
Overall, Nu-Derm is trusted by healthcare professionals for its effective moisture management, protective barrier function, and supportive role in promoting natural wound healing.
