Description

Hydroactive, low-adherent, honey-containing dressing. Sterile, semipermeable dressing contains 30% honey, acrylic polymer gel and water, with polyurethane film backing. Honey-hydrogel pad donates moisture to rehydrate dry tissue and absorbs low to moderate levels of exudate.

Indications

For chronic wounds such as pressure ulcers; superficial- and partial-thickness burns; venous and arterial leg ulcers; diabetic foot ulcers; and fungating wounds. Also indicated for acute wounds such as donor sites, surgical wounds, and cuts and abrasions.

Contraindications

Do not use on individuals with a known sensitivity to the dressing or its components. The dressing should not be used on heavily exuding wounds; full-thickness burns; deep, narrow cavities or sinuses.
