  • Select the dressing’s size and shape, so that the dressing exceeds the wound edges by approx. 1 to 2 cm.
  • Do not cut the dressing.
  • Remove the protective sheets according to the application instructions. Apply the adherent side to the wound with the green side facing away.
  • Secure the dressing using e.g. a Peha-haft bandage or any other suitable fixation, or, if necessary, with compression bandages as instructed by a clinician.
  • The dressing can remain on the wound for up to 7 days, depending on the condition of the wound and the clinician’s instructions.
  • The dressing must be changed if clinically indicated or when exudate approaches the edge of the dressing.
