Southwest Gold Dust Wound Filler

Southwest Gold Dust Wound Filler is a high absorbent hydrophilic polymer capable of absorbing large amounts of exudate and retaining the exudate in the matrix even under high pressures. The aqueous fluids remain trapped in the polymer matrix and can only be removed by evaporative drying or solvent extraction. When used as a wound dressing, Gold Dust protects the wound tissue and the surrounding perIwound area from maceration and degradation.

Gold Dust Wound Filler Features

  • Southwest Gold Dust Wound Filler may be used as dry granules on highly exudating wound
  • Absorption of the fluid also reduces the rate of reproduction of the microorganisms by reducing their ability to move freely and reducing the nutrient transport to the organism
  • Absorption of the fluid effectively reduces the irritation to the tissue and allows the healing process to proceed
  • Healing in turn reduces the amount of fluid produced, which reduces the amount of contamination
  • Enhances debridement
  • Absorbs 100 times its own weight
  • Easy application and control of odor
  • Bacteriostatic/fungistatic
  • Interacts with fluid drainage to form protective gel

Gold Dust Wound Filler Instructions for Use

  • Heavily exudating wounds
    - Clean the wound as necessary
    - Sprinkle a layer of Gold Dust to generously cover the wound area
    Note: The product will absorb 100 times its own water weight. Therefore, it may not be necessary to use the entire contents of this package-- - Once the product interacts with the wound exudates, the powder will turn into a gel
  • - Cover the wound with a non-adherent dressing and secure it with tape or elastic bandage
    - Change the dressings daily or when saturated with exudate
    - Gold Dust may be flushed using saline or irrigation system
  • Moderately exudating wounds
    - Clean the wound as necessary
    - Mix packet contents (3g) into 30cc of water, mix rapidly
    - Fill the wound cavity with the gel from step 2
    - Cover the wound with a non-adherent dressing and secure it with tape or elastic bandage

    Cautions

    • Not recommended for non-draining or lightly exudating wounds
    • Consult a physician if signs of infection occur: fever, swelling, pain, etc.
