How To Apply
- Clean the wound carefully per existing clinical protocol. The skin surrounding the wound should be clean and dry.
- Select a dressing that fits into the wound. If necessary, fold to adjust to wound size. Do not extend the dressing over the peri-wound tissue, to prevent maceration.
- Carefully remove the dressing from the sterile package, applying the center of the dressing to the center of the wound, using clean technique. Press gently, forming the dressing into the contours of the wound.
- Apply an occlusive or semi-occlusive secondary dressing.
- Change daily, or more often, as needed. Change when the dressing is dry to keep a moist dressing in place. Change if leakage of exudate occurs through the secondary dressing.
- If Vitale Hydrogel Dressings are used in the presence of necrotic tissue, the wound may appear to increase in size and depth during autolysis. This is a normal consequence of occlusive treatment. If the wound continues to get larger after the first few dressing changes, consult a healthcare professional.
- Rinse before wound assessment and applying a new dressing.
