Product Information

Direction

1. Cleanse the application site. Ensure surrounding skin is clean, dry and free from excess hair 2. Select appropriate dressing size. Ensure the absorbent pad covers the entire wound or area to be protected. The scale on the pouch is for guidance only. 3. Remove first liner and anchor the adhesive side of the dressing to the skin. 4. . Remove remaining liner / liners. Smooth over. If on a wound ensure absorbent pad covers the wound. Do not stretch the dressing. 5. . Smooth down the borders. Ensure there are no creases that could compromise the seal. The dressing can be repositioned as required. Always read the label and follow directions for use.

Warnings

• Do not cut the absorbent pad as internal dressing components may contaminate the wound leading to delayed healing. • Do not immerse the dressing in water. • Do not use with oxidising agents such as hypochlorite solutions (e.g. EUSOL) or hydrogen peroxide as these can reduce the absorbency of the dressing. • If reddening or sensitisation occurs discontinue use. • The use of ALLEVYN LIFE Dressings as part of a prophylactic pressure ulcer prevention therapy, does not preclude the need to continue to develop and follow a comprehensive pressure ulcer prevention protocol (e.g. regular turning, appropriate mattress and skin care). • Single use only, if used on more than one patient cross contamination or infection may occur. • Once opened, do not retain unused dressings for application at a later date. • If used on infected wounds, the infection should be inspected and treated as per local clinical protocol.
