365 Non Woven Island Dressing 5 X 7.2 Cm – Pack of 50 (Ref 36590001)

Description

• 365 Non Woven Island Dressings is a range of sterile, self adhesive, soft non woven cloth wound dressings incorporating an absorbent wound pad. 365 Non Woven Dressings are not waterproof.
• Suitable for use as a primary dressing for low exudate wounds. For example; cuts and abrasions, clean closed post-operative wounds, protection of donor sites, minor burns, protection against skin breakdown due to friction or continuous moisture exposure and fixation of catheters. NOT suitable for use with moderate to high exudate wounds. For example; full thickness burns, deep cavity wounds or as a replacement for sutures and other primary wound closure methods.
• To apply, cleanse the wound and ensure the surrounding skin is clean, dry and free from soaps, creams and oils. Select a dressing size large enough to provide a margin that adheres to dry healthy skin around the wound site and apply. The frequency of dressing change will depend on the clinical condition of the wound, the dressing should be changed if exudate penetrates through the soft cloth backing. Dressings can be left in place for up to 7 days.
• To remove 365 Non Woven Island Dressings, gently peel and lift one corner of the dressing from the skin. Support the skin whilst peeling the dressing off horizontally (not vertically) and in the direction of hair growth. Care should be taken to avoid skin damage with repeated applications, or on patients with fragile skin.
• Precautions: Stop any bleeding at the site before applying the dressing. Do not stretch the dressing during application as tension can cause skin trauma. Do not use if the peel pouch is opened or damaged. If the condition of the wound deteriorates, consult your healthcare professional.
