Description

17,5x17,5cm dressing with a silicone adhesive border and a layer of Hydrofibre in contact with the wound that creates a soft and cohesive gel maintaining a moist wound environment favouring the healing process. Recommended for minor abrasions, lacerations, minor cuts, scalds and minor burns. The outer layer provides an impermeable barrier that protects against viruses and bacteria and protects the wound from external contamination, thus reducing the risk of infection when the dressing is intact and not leaking.

The outer film allows evaporation of water vapor from exudates absorbed by the dressing. The polyurethane foam and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose fibre layer present in the multilayer pad absorbs large amounts of exudate and sequesters bacteria. The layer of CMC Na fibres in contact with the wound bed creates a soft, cohesive gel that conforms completely to the wound bed, thus maintaining a moist environment conducive to the healing process and aids in the removal of necrotic tissue from the wound (autolytic cleansing) without damaging the newly formed tissues.

Instructions for use

Before applying the dressing, clean the wound bed with a suitable cleansing agent and dry the perilesional skin.

Composition

The foam dressing consists of an outer polyurethane layer and a multilayer compress composed of polyurethane foam, a polyamide layer and a hydrofiber layer made of sodium carboxymethylcellulose fibers.

Pharmaceutical Advice

Burns are damage and destruction to the integrity of the skin caused by heat, chemicals, electricity, sun exposure or other radiation energy. At the domestic level, the most common burns are caused by liquids, hot steam or contact with a surface at a high temperature. These burns can reach more or less deep layers and affect adjacent structures (hair follicles, sweat glands). Their extent can be variable. They are classified into different degrees depending on these factors (degree 1 being the most superficial and least serious).

In cases of mild, superficial and not very extensive, slightly red burns (for example, after exposure to the sun), intensely moisturise the skin with soothing and moisturising emulsions. Sunscreen will also be necessary to protect the area with a high SPF and appropriate clothing and accessories. Remember that sunburns are indicative of deep damage to the skin, with alterations to cellular DNA, so it is always best to avoid them by using sunscreen and being responsible with sun exposure.

Other types of minor burns can be relieved immediately by placing the area under cold water for a few minutes. Then, when the skin is dry, apply a soothing, antiseptic and regenerating ointment. The damaged area should be covered with sterile bandages or dressings with silver particles (with an antibacterial effect). It should also be protected from the sun to avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. If any more serious signs appear, such as malaise, fever, discharge from the affected area, blisters, pain or other signs of infection, consult a healthcare professional.
