Observations & warnings
Do not use in combination with other products without the advice of a doctor or healthcare professional
During the body's natural healing process, dead tissue will be removed from the wound (autolytic debridement), making the wound appear larger after the first few dressing changes
If this condition persists, consult a specialist
If irritation (redness, inflammation, skin peeling, excessive granulation tissue, or hypersensitivity) occurs, consult a specialist
Frequent dressing changes are not necessary when the surrounding skin is fragile or prone to peeling
Assess the wound at each dressing change
Contact a healthcare professional immediately in case of:
Signs of infection (increased pain, bleeding, increased exudate...)
Change in color/odor of the wound
No signs of healing
Most suspicious signs
Can be used for infected wounds under the supervision of a specialist
Additional information
Treatment of leg ulcers, diabetic ulcers, pressure ulcers, burns, surgical wounds, and trauma should be performed under the supervision of a specialist
The dressing can be used for infected wounds under the supervision of a specialist in combination with infection treatment protocols and regular wound monitoring
In case of anaerobic infection, use is not recommended
Instructions for use
Before use
Clean the wound and surrounding skin
Select a dressing size so that the dressing covers the wound edges by at least 3.2cm
Remove the protective backing paper, minimizing finger contact with the adhesive part
Align the position so that the wound is in the center of the dressing
Gently place the dressing over the wound
Hold the dressing in place for 60 seconds
Smooth the edges of the dressing thoroughly
The dressing must be checked regularly for signs of leakage and edge lifting. If these signs are noticed, the dressing should be changed. As exudate is absorbed by the dressing, a yellowish-ivory gel layer will be observed underneath when removing the dressing
Removing the dressing
Use one hand to press down and the other hand to gently lift the corner of the dressing and pull it up gently
