SoloSite Gel: Preserved Multi-use Hydrogel for Moist Wound Care (50 g)

SoloSite Gel by Smith+Nephew is a preserved multi-use hydrogel that creates and maintains a moist wound environment while desloughing and debriding sloughy tissue. Its water-swellable polymer stays gel-like until saturated, enabling longer dwell time in the wound and reducing dressing changes.

• Primary material: Hydrogel with a water-swellable polymer that remains gel-like until saturation, enabling extended contact with the wound bed.
• Capacity and dispensing: Supplied as a 50 g tube for multi-dose dispensing in clinical and home-care settings.
• Moist wound healing: Maintains a moist wound surface to support healing pathways and help prevent eschar formation.
• Debridement and desloughing: Gently rehydrates sloughy tissue and necrotic debris; helps manage exudate to reduce slough build-up.
• Clarity and compatibility: Crystal-clear gel that does not discolor the wound view; compatible with standard wound dressings and gentle irrigation for removal.
• Safety and stability: Non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitising in typical use; preserved to enable safe multi-dose use without increasing infection risk when used as directed.

Designed for clinicians and caregivers managing wounds with moderate to heavy exudate, SoloSite Gel supports wound bed preparation by desloughing and debriding while preserving a moist environment. The crystal-clear formula allows continuous wound observation without color change, aiding timely decisions about dressing changes and care steps.

Benefits include maintaining a moist environment to support healing, aiding in the desloughing and debridement of sloughy tissue, managing excess exudate to prevent debris buildup, and enabling safe multi-dose dispensing with straightforward application and removal.

Description SoloSite* Gel Preserved Multi-use Hydrogel SoloSite Gel creates and maintains an optimal moist wound environment as it desloughs and debrides. Unlike gels formulated with water miscible polymers, SoloSite's water “swellable” polymer remains gel-like until saturated, so it stays in the wound longer and requires fewer dressing changes. SoloSite has been proven non-cytotoxic, non-irritating and non-sensitising. Its crystal-clear, physically stable formula doesn't change colour, enabling an unimpeded view of the wound. Features Preserved for safe, multi-dose dispensing Convenient tube presentations, including the 20 gram Effective debrider and deslougher Promotes moist wound healing Cost-effective Benefits Debriding and Desloughing Action SoloSite Gel gently rehydrates sloughy and necrotic tissue which must be removed before healing can progress. SoloSite also absorbs excess exudate, thereby halting the build-up of cellular derbris and so helping to prevent slough formation. SoloSite Gel is easily applied and removed, with gentle irrigation being all that is required for removal. Moist Wound Healing SoloSite Gel provides a moist environment at the wound surface, preventing eschar formation and promoting fast, painless and problem free healing. Safe, Multi-dose Dispensing SoloSite Gel contains effective preservatives to ensure that multiple reuse of the spray pack or tube may occur without fear of increasing the risk of wound infection.
