Rope with poly-absorbent fibres and sterile probe.

Key Features:

• Poly-absorbent fibres (polyacrylate) highly absorbent and cohesive.
• Packaged with a probe to assess wound depth.
• Haemostatic properties.

Benefits:

• 50% better reduction in sloughy tissues compared to hydro fibres.
• Traps bacteria
• Debrides and desloughs
• One piece removal
• Easy to pack into the wound
• Manages minor bleeding

Indications:

• Desloughing phase of chronic exuding wounds (eg leg ulcers, pressure injuries, diabetic foot ulcers)
• Potentially sloughy wounds
  • acute wounds (burns, skin abrasions, traumatic wounds)
  • post-operative wound
  • cancerous wounds

Contraindications:

• Do not use if there is a known sensitivity to UrgoClean.
• Do not use UrgoClean as a surgical sponge for heavily bleeding wounds.
• Do not use in fistula wounds with a diameter less than that of the probe, do not use on dry wounds.
• Do not use as surgical packing (non-resorbable rope).
• Do not use in endo-nasal area in rhino-sinusitis surgery.

Precautions:

• The soft-adherent TLC layer of UrgoClean adheres to latex gloves. It is therefore recommended that the dressing be handled carefully, avoiding any contact with the soft-adherent side or using sterile forceps. The concomitant use of a cream, lotion, ointment or emulsion is not recommended.
• Due to the non-occlusive nature of this dressing, UrgoClean can be used on infected wounds under close medical supervision.
• During the desloughing process, the wound may appear to be larger in size. This is due to the effective removal of slough.
• Do not re-sterilise the dressing.
• Check that the sterile protector is intact before use. Do not use if package is damaged.
• Single use sterile individual packaging: re-using a single use dressing may lead to risks of infection.

Supplied with a sterile probe.
