StrataXRT dries to form a thin, flexible wound dressing which hydrates and protects affected skin areas. StrataXRT has no measurable pH value which is why it does not affect the fragile acid mantle of the skin. StrataXRT helps to promote a moist wound healing environment for widespread superficial wounds and burns. StrataXRT is a self-drying, non-sticky, transparent, gel formulation that lightly bonds to the most superficial damaged skin layer. This moist wound healing environment promotes faster re-epithelialization* and significantly reduces the skin’s acute inflammatory response seen with both dry and wet desquamation from radiation dosing or first and second degree burns.

In dry desquamation, StrataXRT protects the fragile epidermis and maintains the skin’s integrity, preventing the outmost layers from excessive sloughing.

In moist desquamation, StrataXRT protects the dermal stroma from long-term deterioration whilst optimizing the environment for the healing process and reducing the risk of infection. StrataXRT is ideal for large surface areas and contoured skin like breasts, face, back and pelvic area. It is also idea for joints and hairy areas without the need for shaving prior to application.

StrataXRT is a self-drying, non-sticky, transparent, wound dressing in the form of a gel that lightly bonds to the most superficial damaged skin layer. It was specifically developed for the prevention and treatment of radiation dermatitis.

No, StrataXRT does not cause a Bolus effect. It has been tested with different energy levels to ensure that there is no effect on the energy beam. Additionally, the StrataXRT formula does not contain any trace of metals thus it does not scatter the treatment beam. When dry, StrataXRT forms a flexible and thin wound dressing. Its thickness can only be measured in micrometers.
