FAQs

What makes this dressing 'non-adherent'?

The dressing has a special shiny surface that is designed not to stick to the wound bed, allowing for pain-free removal.

Can I reuse this dressing?

No, these are sterile, single-use dressings and should not be reused to maintain hygiene and prevent infection.

What kind of wounds are these dressings best for?

They are ideal for minor cuts, grazes, and small superficial burns where a sterile, non-stick covering is beneficial.

How often should I change the dressing?

Change the dressing daily, or if it becomes wet, dirty, or begins to peel away. Always follow professional medical advice for wound care frequency.

Are these dressings waterproof?

The dressing itself is not waterproof, but the adhesive aims to provide a secure seal. For activities involving water, a waterproof secondary dressing might be necessary.

What is the size of each dressing?

Each dressing pad measures 50x50 millimeters (5cm x 5cm).

How many dressings are in a pack?

Each pack contains 100 individual sterile dressings.

Troubleshooting

Dressing not sticking securely

Ensure the skin around the wound is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions. Press down firmly on the adhesive edges for at least 30 seconds. Consider using a secondary fixation tape if needed.

Dressing appears to be sticking to the wound

Ensure the shiny, non-adherent side is facing the wound. If the dressing has become stuck, moisten it gently with sterile saline solution before attempting removal.

Skin irritation or rash under the adhesive

Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Cleanse the area gently and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist. Ensure the skin is completely dry before application.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Requires a secondary dressing or tape for very large or awkward areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These dressings require no setup beyond opening the sterile packaging. Ensure hands are clean before applying the dressing directly to the cleaned wound.

Compatibility: The 50x50mm size is compatible with most minor wound care protocols. The dressing is designed for use on cuts, grazes, and minor burns. It is compatible with most standard first-aid practices.

Care: As sterile, single-use items, these dressings are not designed for reuse. Once applied, monitor the wound and dressing daily. Change the dressing if it becomes wet, soiled, or if the adhesive begins to lose its grip. Store unused dressings in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain sterility.
