Description
Sterile gel consisting of natural hydrocolloids (pectin, sodium carboxymethylcellulose) dispersed in a transparent and viscous substrate.
The gel is designed for the hydration and management of partial and full thickness wounds such as leg ulcers and pressure ulcers.
The gel creates a moist healing environment that helps promote natural autolytic debridement processes.

How to use
Clean the wound thoroughly with water or saline solution, according to the protocol in use.
Dry the surrounding skin.
Unscrew the cap.
Remove and throw away the white protective ring and use the cap itself to pierce the membrane of the tube.
Apply the gel directly to the wound. Some packages contain a sterile applicator with a nozzle. The applicator can be attached to the neck of the tube to facilitate application in deeper wounds. Do not fill the wound above the level of the surrounding skin.
An optimal healing environment can be created by covering the wound with a moisture-retaining dressing.
The gel should be changed at the first signs of gel leakage from the edges of the covering dressing or at routine dressing changes.
The gel can be easily removed with a sterile saline solution.
It is recommended to renew the gel at most every three days when the wound is cloudy or necrotic, and at most every seven days when it is clean and/or granulating.

Components
Warnings
Contraindicated in those with a known sensitivity to the gel or its components.
Sterility is guaranteed unless the container is opened or damaged before use.
If the primary packaging is damaged, do not use the product.
This device is for single patient or single wound use only and should not be reused.
Reuse may lead to an increased risk of infection or cross-contamination, and the physical properties of the device may not be optimal for the intended use.
Colonization of chronic wounds is a common phenomenon and does not represent a contraindication to the use of the gel.
If an infection is suspected or develops while using the gel, appropriate antibiotic therapy should be initiated.
You can continue to use the gel, but the evolution of the wound should be monitored by a doctor.
The safety of the gel in third-degree burns has not been established.
The gel should be used with caution in deep wounds with narrow openings, such as fistulas, where removal of the gel may be difficult.
The gel, by keeping the wound environment moist, promotes the removal of necrotic tissue.
This may make the wound appear larger after the first few applications.
The gel is for external use only and should not be used internally.
