Before Using the Dressing: Clip excess hair for patient comfort. . Cleanse wound and surrounding skin according to facility policy. Note: If periwound skin is fragile or exposure to wound exudate is likely, apply a barrier film. Allow the barrier film to dry before dressing application. Assess wound. Select appropriate size dressing to ensure that the foam pad is larger than the wound area. Applying the Dressing: Remove dressing from package. Hold the dressing by one of the side tabs and remove the printed liner, exposing the adhesive border. While holding the tabs, position the dressing over the wound. Gently press the adhesive film border to the skin (Figure 2). Avoid stretching the dressing or the skin. Beginning at the center of the dressing, grasp one section of the paper carrier and pull toward the outer edge of the dressing. Repeat this for each of the remaining carrier sections until all paper carrier is removed. Firmly press and conform the adhesive border to the skin.
