What is XLTA®?
  • XLTA® is an advanced hydro-capillary wound care dressing.
  • XLTA® Max, Super & Ace have non-adherent layers both sides, allowing it to be placed in direct contact with wound bed.
  • XLTA® features an advanced action that effectively prepares the wound bed for healing, reducing the risk of infection whilst aiding the regeneration of healthy tissue.
  • XLTA® is available in rolls or flat non-adherent dressings.
  • XLTA® can be cut to fit wounds of different shapes and sizes.
  • XLTA® can be layered for heavily exudating wounds.
How XLTA® works

XLTA® features a unique combination of non-woven viscose and polyester fibers, providing a superior hydrocapillary and hydrocnductive action that absorbs exudate both vertically and horizontally into the dressing. This ensures efficient fluid management while maintaining an optimal moisture balance. XLTA® offers multiple layers of protection, with a superabsorbent core that securely stores fluids, preventing maceration and over granulation and promoting a conducive environment for wound healing.

In addition, the electrostatic charge within XLTA® helps attract and trap negatively charged bacteria, removing them from the wound bed, further reducing the risk of infection. The non-adherent layers on both sides of the dressing ensure that it can be placed directly on the wound bed without causing trauma during dressing changes, enhancing patient comfort and reducing pain.

XLTA® Key Features & Benefits
  • Wound Bed Preparation: XLTA®plays a critical role in preparing the wound bed for healing. By creating a balanced environment of moisture and managing proteases and bacteria, XLTA®primes the wound for granulation and tissue regeneration. Its ability to remove exudate, slough, and necrotic tissue ensures that the wound bed remains clean and ready for healing to proceed efficiently. This preparation is essential for transitioning chronic or stalled wounds back into the active healing phase, leading to better outcomes and faster recovery. XLTA® creates an ideal environment for autolytic debridement, clearing away necrotic tissue and promoting granulation.

  • Exudate Management: XLTA®is designed to handle low to extremely high exudate levels, making it suitable for a wide range of wounds. Its superabsorbent capacity ensures long-lasting wear time while preventing fluid leakage and skin maceration. XLTA®effectively manages exudate levels, from light to extremely heavy, ensuring a balanced, moist healing environment.

  • Infection Control: XLTA®goes beyond exudate management by actively trapping and removing bacteria from the wound bed through the XLTA®triple action and electrostatic properties. This helps to prevent biofilm formation and reduce the bacterial burden on the wound, making XLTA® ideal for infected wounds or those at high risk of infection. XLTA® helps prevent infections and combats existing bacterial loads, addressing biofilm-related challenges.

  • Autolytic Debridement: XXLTA®facilitates the natural process of autolytic debridement, allowing the body to break down and remove necrotic tissue in a non-invasive and atraumatic manner. By maintaining a moist wound environment, it accelerates the removal of dead tissue and prepares the wound bed for granulation.

  • Protease Modulation: Chronic wounds often contain elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which can delay healing by breaking down essential extracellular matrix components. XLTA® acts as a protease-modulating matrix, helping to regulate these enzymes, reducing excessive tissue breakdown, and promoting balanced tissue regeneration. By regulating matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), XLTA®reduces tissue breakdown and enhances healing in chronic wounds.

Tissue Regeneration & Wound Closure: XLTA®supports the regeneration of healthy tissue and promotes faster wound closure by maintaining an optimal environment for new cell growth. It helps wounds move efficiently through the healing process, reducing the risk of complications or stagnation in healing. Promotes the growth of healthy tissue, supporting faster wound closure.

XLTA® Versatility & Ease of Use

Multiple Sizes & Customizable Options: Available in 7 sizes (5 sheets, 2 rolls) across three variations (Max 340gsm, Super640gsm, Ace 750gsm), XLTA® can be tailored to fit wounds of all shapes and sizes. It can also be cut to size or layered to accommodate complex wound geometries or heavily exuding wounds. Multiple layers can be applied for enhanced fluid absorption in high-exudate wounds. XLTA® can be cut to size, ensuring a perfect fit for every wound, no matter its shape or depth.

  • Layering for High Exudate: For wounds with excessive fluid output, additional layers of XLTA®can be applied to enhance absorption and extend wear time, making it a versatile option for even the most challenging wounds.

  • Non-Adherent Layers: Both sides of XLTA®are non-adherent, ensuring gentle removal without disrupting newly formed tissue or causing pain during dressing changes. This reduces the trauma associated with traditional dressings, significantly improving patient quality of life. The dressing features non-adherent layers on both sides, minimizing trauma during dressing changes and improving patient comfort.

  • Less Trauma: Reduces disruption to healing tissue during dressing changes.
  • Enhanced Patient Comfort: Gentle on the wound bed, providing a better quality of life for patients.
  • Ease of Use: Makes application and removal seamless for both healthcare providers and patients.
    • Primary or Secondary Dressing: XLTA®can be used as either a primary or secondary layer in wound care protocols. It integrates seamlessly with other wound care products and can be used in conjunction with topical antimicrobials or other advanced dressings to enhance overall treatment efficacy. XLTA®can be used as a primary or secondary dressing, and it is compatible with other wound care products, offering a flexible, multipurpose solution for a wide variety of wound care needs.
XLTA® & Additional Layering

XLTA® is super absorbent and additional layers can be added to increase the absorption capacity and wear time. This is normally not required, but may be necessary in extreme cases where high volumes of exudate are present.
