Indicated for exudate absorption and the management of partial to full-thickness wounds. Some typical wounds are:
Ulcers (venous, arterial, diabetic)
Pressure sores
Donor sites
Surgical incisions
Surgical excisions
Burns (1st and 2nd degree)
Precautions
During the body’s normal healing process, unnecessary material is removed from the wound which will make the wound appear larger after the first few dressing changes. If the wound continues to get larger after the first few dressing changes, consult an appropriate healthcare professional.
Should any signs of irritation (redness, swelling, increased burning sensation), maceration (over-hydration of the skin), hyper-granulation (excess tissue) or sensitivity (allergic reactions) appear, discontinue use and consult an appropriate healthcare professional.
