HAROMED BVBA

HAROMED offers a portfolio of Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) systems, including the Exsudex® XL-i (hospital care device) and Exsudex® XS (home care device or for the mobile patient in a health care facility setting), as well as a wide range of consumables (as set and as single item).
The Exsudex® XL-i is a state-of-the-art compact medical device for regular NPWT, for open abdomen NPWT and for NPWT in combination with instillation. One does not need different devices for different types of NPWT.

Surfasoft® is a unique transparant dressing made of monofilament polyamide. The threads are anchored by rollers (calendering) and meshes are created with a pore size of 90 micron. This creates a strong, smooth and transparant fabric with an open draining surface of 41%.

This unique porous pattern allows evaporation and drainage of wound fluids, without drying the wound surface, pass through to the skin graft when using for burns.

‘State-of-the-art’ transparant fixation dressing for mesh grafts (skin grafts)

Surfasoft® keeps the graft tightly fit to the wound, giving the graft the opportunity for ingrowth. The Surfasoft® dressing fixes mesh grafts, drains the wound, while bacteria can hardly attach to the dressing. When absorbent wound dressings are used in combination with Surfasoft®, they can be removed as often as desirable, in a painless way. Wound inspection through Surfasoft® is perfectly possible. Surfasoft® can remain in situ for several days and can be removed without causing any damage to the underlying tissue. Skin grafts transplanted in difficult areas such as armpit, neck, head, back, etc. turn out to score a ‘take rate’ of almost 100%, thanks
to the benefits of the Surfasoft® dressing.

The ideal interface when applying negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT)

Surfasoft® can be used as a protective contact layer for large (open) abdominal defects to protect fragile and vital structures like gastrointestinal tract, heart, exposed tendons, ligaments, prostheses,... . Surfasoft® limits also the ingrowth of granulation tissue in polyurethane (black) foam and makes dressing changes easier and less painful for the patient.

The perfect wound contact layer

As a non-adherent interface, Surfasoft® can be used as a protection for vulnerable wound surfaces and ensures an undisturbed wound healing without causing any adhesions to the wound bed (no granulation tissue-damaging) or to the newly formed epithelium. Surfasoft® maintains an optimal moist environment for wound healing. Surfasoft® can be used safely with most absorbent dressings thanks to the inert tact material composition.
