How Versatel Contact Layer Wound Dressing Work?

Versatel is designed to allow wound fluid to easily transfer into a secondary dressing.

1. A typical highly exudating wound drains over 10 mL of fluid per day.
2. In an in vitro study that simulates the drainage of a wound, Versatel was shown to be an efficient transfer layer for fluid.
3. Versatel allowed an average of 16.2 mL of fluid to pass through during 2.5 hours, which is equal to 155.52 mL per day

When to use Versatel Wound Dressing?

• Dry to heavily draining abrasions
• Partial and full-thickness wounds
• Venous or pressure ulcers
• Skin tears
• First- and second-degree burns
• Blisters, cuts, and lacerations
• Surgical and trauma wounds
• Traumatic injury

How to Apply Versatel Contact Layer Dressing?

	Step 1: Clean and dry the wound and peri-wound area. Remove Versatel from the package. Remove the liner from one side of the dressing.
	Step 2:Place dressing directly on the wound and smooth into place. NOTE: Versatel can cover peri-wound skin or maybe cut if necessary.
	Step 3: Remove the second liner if applicable (Versatel only). Cover with an appropriate secondary absorbent dressing such as Qwick. Versatel can be used under compression dressings.
