WHY SELF-ADAPTIVE?
ENLUXTRA Smart Self-Adaptive Wound Dressing is the first and only self-regulating superabsorbent fiber dressing with localized adaptive absorbency and built-in localized adaptive hydration function. The dressing utilises patented smart polymers for sensing the underlying tissue conditions and adapting local functions accordingly.
ENLUXTRA is suitable for wounds of any etiology and with any drainage level - from minimal to high.
ENLUXTRA is able to sense the wound's needs and to act in accordance with them. If a wound, or even a part of it, changes its state while ENLUXTRA is on, the dressing will automatically and reversibly change its local function at this particular area.
An optimally moist environment supports intensive natural cleansing process in the wound; this process is known as autolytic debridement.
Unlike other moist dressings, Enluxtra is able to continuously evacuate multiple products of autolytic debridement, such as liquefied debris of necrotic tissue and slough, along with harmful microorganisms and disintegrated biofilms from the wound bed.

What is the Smart Self-Adaptive functionality?
- If, for some reason, a part of a dry/granulating wound unexpectedly starts exuding, the dressing at this area switches its function from hydration to absorption, while all other dressing areas continue to hydrate the dry parts of the wound.
- If the wound stops exuding, the local function reverts back to hydration.
With this technology, maceration and desiccation will never occur, thus resulting in a more desirable healing process of any wound in any wound stage.
In addition continuous wound cleansing, supported by sustainable moist healing environment and Enluxtra's ability to evacuate the products of natural autolytic debridement and other pro-inflammatory components, helps quickly reduce inflammation and accelerate wound healing process.
