Cuticell Classic Paraffin Gauze Dressing is a sterile, non-adherent wound dressing made of a soft, open-weave gauze impregnated with a blend of medical-grade paraffin wax and white soft paraffin.
Material: Open-weave gauze impregnated with medical-grade paraffin wax and white soft paraffin.
Sterility: Sterile for safe application to wounds.
Non-adherence: Minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes.
Conformability: Adapts to wound contours for improved comfort and contact.
Protects the wound: Creates a physical barrier against external contaminants like dirt and bacteria.
Reduces pain and discomfort: The paraffin wax soothes and moisturizes the wound, minimizing friction and irritation.
Promotes wound healing: Creates a moist environment that supports natural healing processes.
Absorbs wound exudate: Helps manage wound drainage without sticking to the wound bed.
Easy to apply and remove: Non-adherent nature simplifies dressing changes, reducing risks of further wound disruption.
Clean and dry the wound area thoroughly.
Cut the dressing to the appropriate size, ensuring it covers the entire wound and a margin of surrounding skin.
Gently apply the dressing directly to the wound, with the paraffin wax side facing the wound bed.
Secure the dressing loosely with tape or other suitable means to prevent slipping.
Change the dressing as needed, typically every 1-3 days, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
For external use only. Do not apply to deep or infected wounds.
Stop using and consult a healthcare professional if you experience any signs of infection, worsening pain, or allergic reaction.
Do not reuse the dressing.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Consult your healthcare professional for guidance on using this dressing for your specific wound type and care plan.
