Usage Guidelines
Cleanse wound thoroughly and dry the surrounding skin. Select a dressing size that overlaps the wound by approximately one inch. Remove the protective liner and apply the gel side directly to the wound surface. Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing. Change the dressing when the core is saturated or according to clinical guidelines.
