AQUACEL Extra 5x5 cm bandage
Pack size:10 pieces Dosage form:Compresses
AQUACEL™ EXTRA™ Hydrofiber™ Reinforcing Fiber Dressing is a soft, sterile, non-woven compress or packing made from sodium carboxymethylcellulose and regenerated cellulose fiber for reinforcement. This highly absorbent dressing absorbs wound secretions and forms a soft gel.
The gel keeps the wound moist and creates an optimal wound healing environment. AQUACEL ® supports the healing process and facilitates the removal of dead tissue from the wound (autolytic debridement) without damaging the newly formed tissue.
Indications:
Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, the AQUACEL ® EXTRA™ Hydrofiber™ dressing with reinforcing fibers can be used to treat:
- Leg ulcers, pressure ulcers (grade II-IV) and diabetic ulcers
- surgical wounds (e.g. postoperative wounds with secondary healing and split-thickness skin donor sites)
- Second degree burns
- traumatic wounds e.g. (tears and abrasions, cuts)
- Exudate absorption in oncological wounds (ulcerating skin tumors, skin metastases and Kaposi's sarcoma)
Contraindications:
AQUACEL ® EXTRA™ Hydrofiber™ dressing with reinforcing fibers must not be used on people with known hypersensitivity or allergies to this dressing or its components.
Note: This product does not contain latex.
