Nelson

Nelson, a 12.5-year-old Labrador treated for a chronic elbow wound. What initially appeared as redness and a superficial abrasion rapidly progressed into an open wound. Despite early local wound care, bandaging, and suturing, the lesion remained difficult to manage because of its location over the elbow and the repeated pressure placed on the area.

Everything You Need to Know About WIMBA Wound Care

Can WIMBA Wound Care protective spacers spacers be sterilized?

WIMBA Wound Care protective spacers can be hand-cleaned with lukewarm water and surgical or mild, pH-neutral soap, then air-dried and reused up to 5 times. This gentle cleaning process keeps the material safe for the pet and maintains its protective properties.

What is WIMBA Wound Care used for?

WIMBA protective spacers are designed to safeguard wounds, stitches, calluses, sores, and pressure points. By distributing mechanical forces across a larger area, they reduce localized pressure and friction, creating safer conditions for healing. Applied over a primary dressing, they provide an extra layer of comfort and stability for patients.

Can a spacer be placed directly on the wound?

No. A primary wound dressing must always be applied first to cover the wound area. WIMBA spacers are placed on top to create a breathable, flexible buffer that helps lower the risk of infection while easing mechanical stress on the tissue. u003cbr/u003e

Can I buy WIMBA Wound Care products for my own pet?

WIMBA Wound Care is intended for use by, or on the order of, a licensed veterinarian. This ensures proper application, patient safety, and the best possible healing outcome.

The Clinical Challenge

Why wound management is difficult?

One of the key challenges in veterinary medicine is ensuring consistent wound healing. Mechanical forces, such as constant or repetitive pressure that may lead to pressure sores, can compromise blood flow and oxygen delivery to the wound site. Additional factors including temperature and moisture regulation, infection, and excess exudate can further interfere with the recovery process.

The WIMBA Approach

A different approach to wound protection

WIMBA Wound Care spacers are designed to offload pressure from the wound area while maintaining airflow and protection. They create a barrier between the wound and external forces, supporting the healing process.

Key Benefits of WIMBA Wound Care

Our product line is designed to support healing by shielding wounds, stitches, and pressure-sensitive areas from impact and irritation. By creating a gentle barrier, it may help reduce exposure to contamination and supports recovery in a more stable, protected environment.

How to Use WIMBA Wound Care

The support is applied over a standard wound cover and secured with a bandage wrap. Its 3D lattice structure spreads external forces across a larger area, reducing direct pressure on the wound. At the same time, the open design allows airflow, helping regulate temperature and supporting a healthier recovery.

WIMBA Wound Care in clinical use

See how a veterinary professional applies WIMBA Wound Care during routine treatment to protect the wound and reduce pressure in high-risk areas. The spacer is positioned over the affected site and secured using standard bandaging techniques, creating a protective barrier while maintaining airflow.

This approach helps reduce direct pressure on the wound, supports the healing process, and integrates seamlessly into everyday clinical workflows — without adding complexity or extra preparation.
