Instructions

1. Wash hands before and after treating the
wound.
2. Gently clean and dry the wound and
surrounding skin. Any excess hair should be
clipped to ensure close approximation to the
wound. Stop any bleeding (apply gentle
pressure if necessary) and ensure that the skin
is completely dry around the wound.
3. Remove dressing from the pouch. Do not cut
the dressing.
4. Remove the top half of the backing paper.
5. Remove the second half of the backing paper
and smooth the dressing down, without
stretching, ensuring the pad fully covers the
wound.
6. Remove carefully, particularly with elderly or
fragile skin. Support skin with free hand whilst
gently peeling dressing away in direction of hair
growth. Change the dressing as necessary (for
example: if wet or the pad is soiled).

Storage

No

Safety

Seek medical advice immediately for all serious
wounds and burns or if redness or discomfort
occurs. As with all adhesive products, apply and
remove carefully from sensitive or fragile skin.
Frequent dressing changes can result in skin
reddening or damage to skin, particularly on
patients with fragile skin or dermatological
conditions.
