Mechanism of action
Saline gauze maintains moisture at the wound bed, which promotes cell migration, angiogenesis, and granulation tissue formation while softening and facilitating removal of dead tissue. This moist environment is superior to dry dressings for most acute and chronic wounds, reducing pain and promoting faster epithelialization.
