A “difficult wound” is defined as any wound which, following a proper standard of care, has not improved by
after 4 weeks Biofilm is recognized as the primary barrier to healing in most chronic wounds (malone et al 2017). Once removed, the biofilm is able to reform rapidly (48-72 hours) (2). The association between the biofilm and the chronicization of the lesion is now proven.

“Debridement is a fundamental part of wound management.” Debridement refers to the removal of bacterial load from the wound bed, but also to the treatment of the wound edges and surrounding skin.
“Debridement is a procedure to be repeated (Maintenance debridement): The chronic wound contains a series of microbial and biochemical abnormalities that inhibit or slow down the healing process, despite an apparently adequate bed. Therefore, repeated removal of necrotic tissue appears to be necessary during the life of the wound, even when traditional debridement may not seem necessary due to an apparently “healthy” wound.

It deep cleans, breaks down biofilm structures and removes necrotic tissue, allowing for better penetration of other topical treatments such as antibiotic or antimicrobial solutions. Prevents biofilm re-formation thanks to its long-lasting effect. Poloxamer has been shown to aid healing at the cellular level and is not harmful to healthy cells (Percival 2019, et al).
It is a known keratolytic (softens hard, dry hyperkeratotic skin) and continues to work after debridement improving skin integrity.
It contains antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins A and C and has a highly anti-inflammatory and moisturizing effect on the periwound skin
The unique ring technology captures and breaks down the biofilm within the wound bed, and avoids bacterial redistribution elsewhere in the wound bed (Gilles, 2016)

It has been demonstrated that aging cells no longer respond to growth factors and one of the obvious signs of non-healing is represented by the edge which, over time, fails to proceed towards wound healing, the undermined edge can be a sign of colonization or infection. The operator must assess the patient’s hydration status with particular attention to the periwound skin for:
Look at the whole limb and not the hole in the limb
Promotes the self-care of the wound
Safe and easy to use
Moisturizes and improves the conditions of the skin
Reduces exudate and wound odors
Practically painless action
The action of the active ingredients allows the initial and maintenance debridement of the wound
Can be used on all types of chronic injuries
It can be used at every dressing change
It does not require the use of additional devices
Improve the condition of the patient's skin
Reduces intervention times on the injury
