The volume, consistency, and particularly odour and colour, of any exudate will inform the practitioner about bacterial contamination, infection and stage of healing (Hampton and Collins, 2003). However, in the chronic wound, exudate must be effectively managed if the optimal moist environment necessary for wound healing is to be created, the negative effects of chronic exudate on fibroblasts are to be avoided (Phillips et al, 1998), and the surrounding skin protected from the risks of maceration (White, 2006). It is, therefore, important to understand chronic exudate and its effects so that appropriate treatment for the wound and peri-wound area is provided. Flivasorb<jats:sup>\u00ae&gt;<\/jats:sup> (Activa Healthcare) dressings, which include superabsorber particles, can absorb the exudate and retain it firmly within the dressing, ensuring that the potentially damaging chronic wound exudate does not reflect back onto the wound, causing maceration. This article will describe the role of exudates in wound healing, the problems associated with chronic wound exudates and how Flivasorb dressings with superabsorbent particles can provide an optimum healing environment in highly exuding wounds. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.12968\/bjon.2009.18.sup5.43572","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,23]],"date-time":"2014-05-23T14:24:17Z","timestamp":1400855057000},"page":"S38-S42","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["The use of Flivasorb<sup>\u00ae&gt;<\/sup> in highly exuding wounds"],"prefix":"10.12968","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Martin","family":"Tadej","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Wound Healing Centre, Eastbourne"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5130","reference":[{"key":"p_3","volume-title":"on the moist wound","author":"Winter's","year":"1962"},{"key":"p_6","volume-title":"and the concept of moist","author":"Hinman","year":"1963"},{"issue":"39","key":"p_25","first-page":"84","volume":"92","author":"Cameron J","year":"1996","journal-title":"Nurs Times (Wound Care Suppl)"},{"key":"p_26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/jowc.1999.8.4.25865"},{"key":"p_27","volume-title":"Harding K (Eds).
