Contraindications:

Precautions:

• Treatment with UrgoClean Ag should be carried out under medical supervision.
• Use of this dressing does not negate the need for appropriate systemic anti-bacterial treatment of infected wounds in line with local policy.
• The soft-adherent Silver Healing Matrix (TLC-Ag) of UrgoClean Ag adheres to latex surgical gloves. It is therefore recommended that the dressing be handled carefully, avoiding any contact with the soft-adherent side or using sterile pliers.
• Concomitant use with other local treatments is not recommended.
• Avoid contact with electrodes or conductive gels during electronic measurements, e.g. EEG and ECG.
• Clinicians / Healthcare Professionals should be aware that there are very limited data on prolonged and repeated use of silver containing dressings, particularly in children and neonates.
• In the absence of any specific clinical data, use in pregnant or breast-feeding women, is not recommended.
• Do not use in a hyperbaric chamber.
• Single-use, individual packaging. Re-using a single use dressing may lead to risks of infection. Check that the sterile protector is intact before use.
• Do not re-sterilise.
• For elimination, discard according to current protocol. Discard any unused parts of the dressing.
