DuoDERM EXTRA THIN CGF - CONTROLLED GEL FORMULATION WOUND DRESSING

Moisture Retentive – For lightly exuding superficial thickness wounds

DuoDERM® Extra Thin CGF™ dressing is a hydrocolloid that uses ConvaTec’s unique hydrocolloid formulation which consists of a cross-linked honeycomb matrix made from a proprietary mix of Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose, gelatin, pectin and adhesive polymers.

DuoDERM® dressings protect the wound, support debridement1 , are simple to use, and offer continuous care throughout all the healing phases.

DuoDERM® Extra Thin CGF™ dressing is easy to mould and can be cut to shape to allow easy treatment of awkward areas.

DuoDERM® Extra Thin CGF™ dressings are designed to reduce the risk of further skin breakdown due to friction by preventing contact with clothes/bedlinen.

Features:

• Promotes granulation and facilitates autolytic debridement
• Autolytic debridement removes necrotic tissue as quickly as enzymatic debridement
• Can be worn for up to seven days
• Highly conformable – can be easily and gently molded into place

Application

Carefully cleanse the wound with saline and dry surrounding skin before selecting a dressing that extends 3cm beyond the wound. After removing the silicone backing paper, gently roll the dressing over the wound, and mould into place.

DuoDERM® Extra Thin CGF™ dressing may be used as a primary dressing or as a secondary dressing, in combination with other appropriate dressings such as, but not limited to, AQUACEL®, DuoDERM® Hydroactive® Gel or Kaltostat® dressing.

To remove, press down gently on the skin and carefully lift the corner of the dressing stretching each edge until free.
