Actiformcool Ionic Hydrogel Sheet dressing 10×10cm 5 pack

• Reduces wound pain by cooling inflamed tissue and bathing nerve endings.
• Dynamically responds to the wound environment to treat the underlying causes of pain.
• Removing devitalised tissue by donating moisture to dry wounds and absorbing exudate from wet wounds.
• Pain is managed throughout wear time - not just at dressing change.
• Gentle even on the most fragile skin.
• Effective under compression therapy.

Directions:
Prepare and position:
Clean wound in accordance with local guidelines and ensure wound edges are dry. Peel off one side of the white plastic liner and position the dressing. Smooth in place, and remove the remaining liner. Cut to size if required. Large areas can be treated with several dressings used side by side.

Secure and layer:
Secure with a suitable bandage, tape, or compression system. Where extra absorbency is required, the dressing may be layered by removing the top liner of the first dressing and then applying the second dressing.

Removal:
The dressing can be removed in one piece if the gel has not yet formed. If the gel has formed, wash it gently with water or saline.

Changing instructions:
Actiformcool should be changed as often as the wound/condition dictates.
As with all absorptive dressings, frequent monitoring is required to ensure the dressing does not dry out.
The dressing should be changed when it becomes cloudy or opaque from fluid absorption.

Indications for use:
It is a primary dressing to assist in autolytic debridement by hydrating necrotic and sloughy tissue and absorbing exudate. Suitable for painful skin and wound conditions, e.g., leg ulcers, burns, scalds, and radiation therapy damage. Appropriate for neonates and those with vulnerable skin. Actiformcool Ionic Hydrogel Sheet Dressings Can be used with secondary dressings.
