ENLUXTRA for Home Health Wound Care:
Lower Costs, Fewer Changes, Less Burnout, Better Healing
Take On More Patients With Fewer Wound Care Visits
In many cases, ENLUXTRA® Self-Adaptive Superabsorbent Wound Dressing supports reduced visit frequency - from daily to once or twice weekly - through its exceptionally high absorbency combined with Adaptive Moisture Control. Its superabsorbent fiber structure rapidly absorbs and retains heavy exudate, while helping maintain a balanced wound environment without maceration or desiccation. By stabilizing wound conditions between visits, even in compromised patients, ENLUXTRA supports more predictable healing trajectories, helps clinicians optimize scheduling capacity, and can expand access to wound care services.
Available Through Major Medical Distributors: ENLUXTRA is not expensive, fits under standard A-series HCPCS codes (A6196–A6197), distributed nationwide through Medline, McKesson, Cardinal Health, and other leading medical distributors - while also being available directly from the manufacturer via our ONLINE STORE.

Simplify wound care workflows and help reduce nurse burnout
- No more messy or time-consuming dressing changes. ENLUXTRA is easy to apply and remove in minutes, and when appropriate, patients or caregivers can be guided to assist with simple dressing changes between visits.
- Enluxtra has the highest on the market absorption and fluid retention rate. It absorbs massive amounts of exudate and locks it in, keeping it away from the wound while maintaining balanced moisture in the wound. Therefore it has much longer wear time than other dressings.
- When needed, ENLUXTRA can be layered to further expand its already high absorption capacity. Learn more about the layering technique.
- Enluxtra's Adaptive Moisture Control technology helps protect against BOTH maceration and desiccation by maintaining a balanced moist wound environment, helping keep the wound stable between visits.
- Enluxtra gently cleanses a wound from non-vital tissue, such as slough and necrosis.
- With continuous wear, Enluxtra helps stabilize the wound environment, often leading to a gradual reduction in exudate over time.
PDGM Episode Economics:
Optimal healing time within the care episode means higher profit
Optimal healing time within the care episode means higher profit
Predictable wound healing within the care episode helps agencies optimize visit utilization and improve margins. Here is how it works:

Real-World Feedback from Home Health Agency Managers and Nurses:
"savings, better clinical results, pain reduction, ability to get more patients"
"savings, better clinical results, pain reduction, ability to get more patients"
There is no need to stock and carry many different dressings for various drainage levels, and many other expensive supplies such as enzymatic agents and skin preps.
Enluxtra alone works for all drainage levels, all healing stages, protects healthy skin from maceration, wound bed from desiccation, and supports intensive autolytic debridement of non-viable tissue , while removing the liquefied by-products without the need for expensive enzymatic agents.
