How To Apply - AW006-C5

Ensure the dressing is the appropriate size for the wound. The dressing should be ½ an inch larger than the wound. The film can be cut to size as required.

1. Always wash hands before and after treating a wound.
2. Once the bleeding has stopped, gently clean and dry the wound and surrounding skin.
3. Remove the dressing from the sterile wrapper.
4. Remove one side of the backing papers.
5. Place the dressing centrally over the wound site.
6. Remove the second backing paper and smooth the dressing down over the skin.
7. Remove the top plastic films from the dressing. 

For removal:

Monitor the wound through the dressing and apply a new dressing as required. The dressing can remain in place for up to 7 days dependent upon condition of the wound and the amount of exudate. It is recommended to remove once the dressing loosens naturally. 

The dressing cannot be used continuously for more than 30 days.
