Indications
Algidex Ag Packing Gauze is used for the management of “deeper” wounds that require packing such as tunneling or undermining wounds (pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and surgical wounds).
Mode of Use/Application
Thoroughly cleanse the wound with normal saline. Remove appropriate amount of packing gauze from bottle. Completely fill wound with packing gauze (lightly packing).
Cover with appropriate secondary dressing such as gauze, hydrocolloid, foam, or film dressing. Secondary dressing selection should be based on the amount of wound drainage.
Removal & Change Frequency
Dressing may be worn up to 5 days or until cover dressing reaches saturation.
Remove secondary dressing and gently remove packing gauze. Thoroughly cleanse the wound to remove wound drainage or residue from Algidex Ag.
Reapply as necessary following directions above.
