Medline CUR253590 Curad Xeroform Petrolatum Dressing 5 inch x 9 inch (x)

Key Features & Benefits

Painless Dressing Change

Due to discomfort, dressing changes can become painful but non-adherent dressings can address this issue. Curad Xeroform Petrolatum Dressing are made with petrolatum infused fine mesh gauze which curtails sticking to the wound thus no pulling at healing tissues. This feature causes minimal pain during dressing changes making it stand out for sensitive wounds and frequent dressing changing.

Covers Greater Portion of the Wounds

The dressing can protect larger sized wounds due to the 5 x 9 inch size without compromising comfort thus aiding in forming an effective barrier guarding against bacteria infiltration. Furthermore, permeation of bismuth tribromophenate into the dressing allows borderline antimicrobial action that aids in neat infection free healing particularly useful for post-operative donor wounds along with first and second degree burns.

It Leads to Enhanced Healing by Preserving Moisture

The dressing's petrolatum content facilitates moisture retention at the wound's surface, which aids in tissue healing and regeneration. Avoiding excess moisture loss is critical for scar minimization and improvement of the physiological healing processes.

Suitable for Different Types of Wounds

The Curad Xeroform Dressing is indicated for:

✔️ Burns (1st and 2nd Degree) - Alleviates discomfort in and protects the area of damaged skin.

✔️ Post Operative Wounds - Safeguards wound contamination and protects wound surfaces to avoid adherence to sutures.

✔️ Skin Grafts & Donor Sites - Maintains moisture levels to enhance healing potential of tissues.

✔️ Lacerations & Abrasions - Shielding wounds from bacterial infection by providing a protective barrier.

Soft and Ventilated
Though classified as an occlusive dressing, the fine mesh gauze permits limited ventilation, minimizing the potential for maceration while still ensuring effective coverage and protection of the wound. It is pliable, soft, and flexible which enables the material to take on the shape of the body parts ensuring comfort to the patient.

Sterile & Wrapped Individually
Each dressing is packed individually in a sterile area, ensuring safe transit without cross-contamination and maximum hygiene. This single-use design makes the dressing ideal for use in hospitals and clinics and in home healthcare settings.

Application Intructions

Wound Cleaning: Using saline or a wound cleanser, gently clean the area of concern.

Dressing Application: Open dressing pack aseptically and apply the dressing over the wound ensuring total coverage.

Maintaining Position: Apply additional dressings, adhesive tape, or gauze rolls to secure the primary dressing in a desired position.

Alterations: Follow the instructions from a qualified medical practitioner with regard to changing the dressing or if the dressing becomes soaked.
