Description
AsGUARD® Clear + Film Island Dressing, sized at 6cm x 7cm, is an advanced wound care solution crafted by SENTRY Medical. This dressing is designed to provide optimal protection for superficial wounds with light exudate, such as skin tears, abrasions, and post-operative sites.
Key Features
- Waterproof and Sterile: Ensures a clean environment for the wound, allowing for safe exposure to water.
- Transparent Polyurethane Film: The border creates a secure seal while permitting visual inspection of the wound site.
- Central Absorbent Pad: Low-adherent and breathable, it minimizes discomfort and promotes a conducive healing environment.
Benefits
- High Moisture Vapor Permeability: Helps maintain skin integrity by allowing moisture to escape.
- Flexible Design: Contours comfortably to the skin, making it ideal for challenging areas like the heel.
- Gentle Removal: Minimizes pain and trauma, protecting fragile skin during dressing changes.
Application Instructions
To apply, ensure the absorbent pad extends 1–2 cm beyond the wound margin. Remove the paper backing, position the pad over the wound, and smooth down the edges. The dressing can remain in place for up to 7 days, but should be changed if exudate extends beyond the pad.
Precautions
- Avoid use if allergic to any components.
- If infection is present, consider using an appropriate antimicrobial dressing.
Packaging
Available in a box of 50 dressings or as single units, AsGUARD® Clear + Film Island Dressing offers a reliable and convenient option for both personal and clinical settings. Its design not only protects the wound but also provides peace of mind through effective and gentle care management.
