Before dressing the wound, make sure to clean, examine, and assess the area. Debride if necessary. 1. Use a cleansing solution on the wound surface and the surrounding skin, and dry the skin thoroughly. 2. Loosely pack ribbon or pad into deep wounds to about 80% of the depth of the wound to accommodate swelling of the dressing. 3. Leave a small overhang (at least 2.5cm or 1 IN) to facilitate removal. Excess dressing can be cut to size without shedding fibers. 4. Cover the ribbon or pad with a moisture-retentive dressing. Secure the dressing with hypoallergenic tape, if necessary. Dressing can remain in place for seven days maximum - Change the dressing when clinically indicated or when the softened area approaches the edge of the dressing. Removal of the dressing - 1. Grasp one corner of the dressing and carefully lift away from wound. 2. In the unlikely event of adhesion to the wound bed, the dressing can be easily removed by soaking.
