DUODERM GEL 30G (187987)

• Is a transparent, preservative-free gel containing hydrocolloid ingredients
• The hydrocolloids in DuoDERM Hydroactive Gel are:
  • Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and pectin.
  • Propylene glycol.
  • The gel can be used on shallow and deep wounds to provide moisture, support autolytic debridement of slough and necrotic tissue, and fill deep and dry wounds.
  • To optimize effectiveness, it is recommended to use a moisture-retentive cover dressing such as DuoDERM CGF
• Thanks to the presence of hydrocolloids, the gel not only provides moisture to the wound but also absorbs exudate, unlike other hydrogels on the market.
• Immediately creates a moist environment upon application, with no need to wait for a gel layer to form. The uniform consistency makes it easy to use and prevents running.
• Forms a moist wound healing environment that supports the healing process by facilitating autolytic debridement and allowing for painless dressing removal without damaging newly formed tissues.

• Indicated for providing moisture and managing partial or full-thickness skin loss wounds such as pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers

• Bacterial colonization of chronic wounds is common and is not a contraindication for DuoDERM^® Hydroactive ^® Gel
• When there is a suspicion of infection before or the onset of infection during the use of DuoDERM^® Hydroactive ^® Gel, it should be combined with an appropriate antimicrobial treatment regimen:
  • DuoDERM^® Hydroactive ^® Gel can continue to be used but the progress of the wound must be closely monitored
  • In cases of anaerobic infection, the use of an occlusive dressing is not recommended
• The moist wound healing environment created by the gel can help support autolytic debridement and make the wound appear larger after the first few dressing changes.

• Clean the wound and let it dry
• Open the gel tube cap
• Apply DuoDERM gel directly onto the wound
  • Do not fill the gel beyond the wound edges
• DuoDERM Gel should be rinsed/changed when the edges of the secondary dressing lift or when a dressing change is indicated
  • The maximum wear time of the gel on the wound is 7 days

The maximum retention time of the gel on the wound is 7 days
