Description
Melolin Low Adherent Dressings, crafted by Smith & Nephew, are designed to provide gentle care for a variety of light-to-moderately exuding wounds. These sterile, non-adhesive dressings are ideal for cuts, grazes, minor burns, clean sutured wounds, abrasions, lacerations, and stitches.
Key Features
- Low-Adherent Surface: The perforated film surface minimizes sticking to the wound, reducing trauma and pain during removal.
- Highly Absorbent Pad: Made from cotton and acrylic, the pad ensures rapid drainage of exudate, keeping the wound clean.
- Hydrophobic Backing: The water-repellent layer prevents fluid strikethrough, protecting the wound from external contaminants.
Benefits
- Cushioning and Protection: Provides a protective barrier while allowing the skin to breathe.
- Easy to Customize: Can be easily cut to shape without losing integrity, though a secondary dressing is needed for secure placement.
Usage Instructions
- Preparation: Wash hands thoroughly and clean the wound.
- Application: Cut the dressing to size if needed and place the shiny film side on the wound.
- Securing: Use a secondary dressing like microporous tape or a bandage to hold it in place.
- Maintenance: Change the dressing daily or as needed based on the wound's condition.
Precautions
- Suitable for external use only.
- Not recommended for wounds with high exudate or dry wounds.
- Store in a cool, dry place.
- Seek medical advice if necessary, especially for serious wounds or if irritation occurs.
