The Hartmann Zetuvit E Non - Sterile 10x10cm dressing is a non-sterile medical dressing designed for the treatment of highly exudative wounds in animals . Its multi-layer technology allows for rapid and effective absorption, reducing the risk of maceration and promoting tissue recovery in clinical settings or under professional supervision. It is especially useful in post-surgical cases, ulcers, traumatic wounds, and controlled infectious processes.
