Product benefits Flexible and conformable This breathable wound dressing is made from soft; flexible; latex-free material that adapts to the contours of the body. This ensures patients are comfortable and can move normally. Doesn’t stick to the wound The wound pad is absorbent yet low-adherent; meaning it doesn’t stick to the wound. A waterproof dressing that provides a protective; dirt-repellent barrier and can be worn while washing. It’s also permeable to water vapour; allowing the skin to breathe and helping to prevent wound infection and maceration. How to use 1. Remove the protective film Hold the plaster in one hand and peel off the upper protective film with thumb and index finger of the other. 2. Apply and remove the second protective film Place the wound pad centrally on the wound. Make sure that you only touch the plaster on the protective film and the backside, never the wound pad itself. Remove the remaining protective film. 3. Smooth out and press Smooth out the dressing so that it adheres evenly. Apply only slight pressure and avoid tension. To increase the adhesive strength, you can warm the dressing between the palms of your hands before applying it.
