Application Guide
Learn morePrepare the Wound Area
Start by thoroughly cleansing the wound bed, per your facility's protocol. Gently pat the skin around the wound dry with a sterile gauze pad. Measure the wound to determine the appropriate size of the Hydrofera Blue COMFORTCEL® dressing and cut dressing to the size of the wound. Dressing is pre-moistened, therefore, no extra hydration required.
Apply the Dressing
Carefully place the moistened Hydrofera Blue COMFORTCEL® dressing directly on the wound bed and ensure that it fully covers the wound, no gaps between the wound edges and the dressing. Avoid overpacking.
Secure the Dressing
Secure the dressing with an appropriate secondary dressing or fixation method over the Hydrofera Blue COMFORTCEL® dressing to maintain a moist wound environment.
Monitor the Wound
Be sure to regularly monitor the wound. Hydrofera Blue COMFORTCEL® dressings can remain in place for up to 3 days, or as directed by the medical professional.
Note:
- If the dressing retained its blue color where it had been in contact with the wound, the new dressing can be left in place for up to 3 days.
- If the dressing turned white or lightened in color, continue daily dressing changes until blue color is retained.
- If the dressing turned white or lightened in color, continue daily dressing changes until blue color is retained.
As with many wound care dressings, moisture balance is key. If the dressing becomes dry, remoisten with sterile saline or sterile water to prevent wound bed irritation.

Hydrofera Blue® offers a powerful suite of antibacterial wound dressings that use a proprietary polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or polyurethane (PU) foam in combination with two naturally occurring, organic pigments – methylene blue and gentian violet – for wound healing.
These sponge-like foams have impressive absorptive capabilities that help draw debris and exudate away from the wound bed through natural negative pressure. This action also attracts the body's natural healing agents to the wound, promoting improved healing. By removing bacterial bioburden from the wound, Hydrofera Blue dressings can help reduce the wound size and accelerate healing.
Hydrofera Blue products are ideal for wounds with light, moderate, and heavy exudate. They are safe, effective, and versatile, creating a balanced healing environment and supporting all phases of the wound healing process.
Methylene blue and gentian violet are the two active powerful antimicrobial agents found in Hydrofera Blue COMFORTCEL foam dressing.
