Compress 5x5 Flesh-Toned Sterile

Product Description:

The NATURLEN Compress is a dressing made from 100% linen fiber, with proven antibacterial properties, including both bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects*. It is a single-use, sterile product available in white and flesh-toned, in various sizes.
*Confirmed by in vitro studies.

Product Action Description:

This linen dressing has confirmed antibacterial properties, aiding in the natural wound-cleansing process and facilitating the removal of necrotic tissue. The knit compress is soft and flexible, allowing it to adhere well to the wound. The White Compress has enhanced absorbency, making it ideal for heavily exuding wounds, and is used alternately with the flesh-toned Naturlen compress. The white color is achieved through a hydrogen peroxide bleaching process. Naturlen compresses can be used as both primary and secondary dressings.
*Confirmed by in vitro studies.

Usage:

The dressing is intended for use on hard-to-heal wounds with venous insufficiency ulcers. Naturlen compresses can be used as primary and secondary dressings. They are suitable for acute and chronic wounds with moderate to heavy exudate, including both superficial and deep wounds. Additionally, they are ideal for individuals allergic to cotton gauze.

Indications:

• For use on venous ulcers
• For individuals allergic to cotton gauze

Contraindications:

The manufacturer has listed two contraindications:

• Do not use on burn wounds
• Allergy to linen. If an allergic reaction occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor.

Side Effects:

Local reactions: redness, itching.

Warnings:

• Sterility is guaranteed if the internal packaging is undamaged.
• This is a single-use product. Reusing it may result in infection due to contamination, and the physical properties will no longer be maintained.
• If removing the dressing is difficult, saturate the compress with saline solution until it can be slowly removed.
• Naturlen compresses should not be covered with cotton gauze or secured with a cotton or elastic bandage, except when compression therapy is recommended for venous insufficiency.

Packaging System:

• Level 1: Each compress is individually packed in a paper-foil blister, which serves as the primary packaging and functions as a sterile barrier for the compress.
• Level 2: Additionally, each compress is packed in a coated paper bag, providing further protection for the product. This level of packaging also serves as the retail packaging.

Store dressings in their original packaging in a dry, shaded location.

Usage Instructions:

• Before applying the dressing, cleanse the wound area with an appropriate cleansing agent.
• Drip a few drops of sterile saline solution (0.9% NaCl solution) onto the compress and place it on the wound. If possible, wrap the area with NATURLEN linen bandage. If wrapping is not possible, secure the edges of the compress to healthy skin using a paper adhesive tape.
• Change the compress after 24 hours (or after 12 hours if there is heavy exudate), cleaning the wound area with appropriate cleansing agents.
• For exuding wounds, alternate between the White and Flesh-toned compresses until the excessive exudate is eliminated, then continue using only the Flesh-toned compress.
• Follow this procedure for 4 weeks. If necessary, repeat the treatment.
