The dressing better fits into the wound bed to halt bacterial growth and create a moist healing environment.As the wound absorbs exudate, this consistency allows the dressing to hold onto bacteria, lessen leaking risks to guard against maceration, and provide cleaner, less traumatic removal during dressing changes.
