Alvarez O. (1988). Moist environment for healing: matching the dressing to the wound. Ostomy Wound Manage. 21, 64–83. [ PubMed] [ Google Scholar] Greasy, neutral or impregnated dressings, e.g. tulle gras have been used for many years to treat acute skin lesions (injuries, burns, etc.). The aim is to create and maintain a local environment conducive to the healing process based on the concept of healing in a moist environment (3). However, in actual practice, these greasy dressings often dry out and require frequent dressing changes, and they almost always adhere to wounds causing wounds to bleed upon their removal. This makes wound care painful and disruptive to the healing process. An improved form of dressing was required, one which could provide an ideal moist healing environment and at the same time overcome many of the traditional problems of adherence, trauma and pain associated with conventional adherent dressings. In the case of deep wounds and fistula wounds, a section of the dressing should be left visible to enable easy removal. Palfreyman S., King B., Walsh B. (2007).
