Zusammenfassung:Disclosed embodiments relate to a wound dressing which can generate nitric oxide. The wound dressing may include a cover layer, a nitric oxide source layer, such as a nitrite providing layer, an absorbent layer such as a foam, and a gel material adhered to the absorbent layer. The gel material may include perforations in a cured pattern structure. The perforations may define a plurality of fluid channels extending through the gel material. The gel material may form an active wound contact layer for use in generating nitric oxide.
