How to Use Allevyn Classic Gentle Border Gel Dressing?

Cleanse the wound in accordance with local clinical protocols
Select the appropriate allevyn dressing size
Prepare and clean the skin surrounding the wound area by removing excess moisture. Any excess hair should be clipped to ensure close approximation to the wound
Start to remove the protector material from the dressing and anchor the adhesive side of the dressing to the skin
Smooth the dressing over the wound, removing the remaining protector material and ensure that the dressing is adhered all around the wound
Allevyn Dressing can be cut using an aseptic technique. Ensure any exposed foam areas are covered with an appropriate film dressing, taking care not to cover the entire dressing

Allevyn Dressing Removal:

Lift one corner of the dressing and slowly peel back until completely removed from the wound

Precautions While Using Allevyn Classic Foam Dressing:

Do not use dressings with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions (eg. EUSOL) or hydrogen peroxide, as these can break down the absorbent polyurethane component of the dressing. If reddening or sensitization occurs, discontinue use.
During the early stages of wound management, the dressing should be inspected frequently. Where the product is used on infected wounds, the infection should be inspected and treated as per local clinical protocol.
Dressings can be left in place for up to 7 days, depending on the condition of the wound and the surrounding skin or until exudate is visible and approaches to within 3 1/16 of an inch (0.5cm) of the edge of the dressing pad, whichever is sooner.
