Product Description
MPM Medical ExcelGinate® AG Alginate Dressing, 4" x 4.75".
Indications*:
An effective barrier to microbial penetration for moderate to heavy exudating partial and full-thickness wounds, including pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, donor and graft sites, traumatic and surgical wounds and 1st and 2nd degree burns.
Instructions for Use
Site Preparation
- Debride when necessary and irrigate the wound site in accordance with standard protocols.
- Remove excess solution from surrounding skin.
Dressing Selection
- Select a size of MPM ExcelGinate®AG Dressing that is slightly larger than the wound.
Dressing Application
1) Cut using clean scissors or fold the dressing to fit the wound, either side down.
2) Loosely pack deep wounds, ensuring the dressing does not overlap the wound margins.
3) For heavily exudating wounds, apply to the wound bed directly. For wounds with minimal exudates, apply to a sterile water or saline moistened wound bed.
4) Cover and secure MPM ExcelGinate®AG Dressing with a non-occlusive secondary dressing.
Dressing Change and Renewal
1) Dressing change frequency will depend on patient condition and the level of exudates. Initially it may be necessary to change the dressing every 24 hours.
2) Reapply MPM ExcelGinate®AG Dressing when the secondary dressing has reached its absorbent capacity or whenever good wound care practice dictates that the dressing should be changed.
3) Gently remove the secondary dressing.
4) If the wound appears dry, saturate the dressing with sterile water or normal saline solutions prior to removal.
5) Gently remove the dressing from the wound bed and discard.
6) Irrigate the wound site with a suitable wound cleanser prior to application of a new dressing.
