Paving the Way to Wound Healing by:

• Overcoming Wound Infection and Biofilm Formation
• Absorbing exudate (wound discharge)
• Providing an ideal moist wound healing environment

Easy to use

1- Clean the wound with sterile saline or as instructed by wound care provider.

2 - Apply the dressing directly on the wound (trim or fold to best fit the wound size). Either side can be placed on wound.

3- Cover the wound and 1 inch of normal skin beyond the wound area

4- Secure with a secondary dressing, such as island dressing, gauze pad/rolls secured with tape or self adhesive bandages, or other adhesive dressings.

5- To remove: after removing the secondary dressing, gently remove this dressing. If the dressing appears dry, throughly moisten with saline prior to removal.

6- The frequency of the dressing change may vary depending on the wound's drainage.

7- If to be used on a dry wound or a wound with low exudate, first moisten the dressing with saline solution and wring it out prior to its application.

8- This dressing can be used in cavities of high stage wounds.

Wound And Infection

A wound is when there is an interruption in the integrity of the skin. The damage may vary in depth, ranging from the most superficial skin layer to a total loss of skin layers or even tissues under the skin. As a consequence of this disintegration, bacteria and fungi find a path toward deeper tissues, resulting in an infection. Infection is one of the major risks that wounds may impose to body.

Biofilm:

Biofilm is formed when bacteria are transformed and lay down a foundation over the wound, facilitating their adherence to the wound surface. Irrigation can not remove biofilm.
