Dressing Partial to full thickness wounds: -Skin tears -Surgical and trauma wounds -Blisters, cuts, and lacerations -Pressure ulcers -Venous ulcers -First- and second-degree burns -Dry to heavily draining abrasions Conformable, translucent, open mesh structure Facilitates fluid transfer Gentle silicone adhesive Directions for use: 1. Clean wound area with appropriate wound cleanser such as Cardinal Health Wound Cleanser. Dry surrounding skin thoroughly. 2. Remove dressing from packaging and if necessary cut dressing to size using sterile scissors. The dressing can cover peri-wound skin. If more than one pieces is required, overlap the dressings making sure the pores are not blocked. 3. Remove one side of the release liner and affix dressing over wound. Remove second release liner and smooth in place onto the surrounding skin for optimal seal. Tip: moisten fingertips of gloves with sterile water or normal saline solution for easy handling. 4.

All dressings should be monitored frequently. Dressing can be worn up to 7 days depending on condition of the wound and surrounding skin, or as indicated as accepted by clinical practice. Exudate should pass freely through the dressing and pores should not be blocked. Indications: May be used to allow passage of exudate and provide fixation and protection of the wound bed during dressing changes for a wide variety of partial to full thickness wounds, including: -Skin tears -Surgical and trauma wounds -Blisters, cuts, and lacerations -Pressure ulcers -Venous ulcers -First- and second-degree burns -Dry to heavily draining abrasions
A non-bioabsorbable material or substance designed to be inserted into a wound bed to create an appropriate environment for healing (e.g., warm, moist, absorbent). It is typically used for the management of deep secondary-healing wounds, particularly for indications such as stage III and IV pressure ulcers, deep leg ulcers, cavity wounds, excisions, and post-op wound dehiscence. It is often designed to conform to the wound bed to support tissues and is often nonadherent to provide for patient comfort during wound management. This is a single-use device.
