The Smith and Nephew Allevyn Gel Adhesive Hydrocellular Foam Dressing with Gentle Border in a pack of 10 CT offers advanced wound care for optimal healing.

The gentle border ensures a secure and conformable fit, minimizing the risk of leaks and preventing contamination. The unique gel adhesive technology adheres securely to the skin without causing discomfort during removal. The hydrocellular foam absorbs excess exudate while maintaining a moist wound environment, promoting faster healing and reducing the risk of maceration.

Select the appropriate dressing size. Prepare and clean the skin surrounding the wound area by removing excess moisture. Any excess hair should be clipped to ensure a close approximation to the wound. Start to remove the protector material from Allevyn gentle border and anchor the adhesive side of the dressing to the skin. Smooth the dressing over the wound removing the remaining protector material and ensure that the dressing is adhered all around the wound. Dressing changes: During the early stages of wound management Allevyn gentle border dressings should be inspected frequently. Where the product is used on infected wounds the infection should be inspected and treated as per local clinical protocol. Dressings can be left in place for up to 7 days depending on the condition of the wound and the surrounding skin or until exudate is visible and approaches to within 5/8" of the edge of the dressing, whichever is sooner.

Do not use Allevyn gentle border dressing with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions (e.g. eusol) or hydrogen peroxide, as these can break down the absorbent polyurethane component of the dressing. If reddening or sensitization occur, discontinue use.
