Description
INADINE™ PVP-I Non-Adherent Dressing consists of a low adherent knitted viscose fabric impregnated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) base containing 10% Povidone Iodine; equivalent to 1.0% available iodine.
How does it work?
The Povidone Iodine molecule has a broad spectrum antimicrobial action1,2and has been proven to be effective against MRSA3-5.
Reliable and Efficient
INADINE™ Dressing is a reliable, efficient and non-adherent dressing designed to manage bacterial contamination and prevent infection in both chronic and acute wounds.
Non Adherent
INADINE™ Dressing minimises adherence to the wound bed, therefore reducing the risk of damage to the granulation tissue at dressing removal, and in clinical practice has been shown to reduce pain for patients.
As PVP–I is released the INADINE™ Dressing the dressing will change colour from orange to white. The colour change provides an indicator of how frequently dressings should be changed preventing unnecessary dressing changes, when compared to other dressings1. This could improve cost effectiveness in treatment.Ideal Uses:
- Minor burns
- Minor traumatic skin loss injuries
- Clinical studies suggest that INADINE™ Dressing may also be an appropriate dressing choice in the management of chronic wounds, including:
- Ulcers deriving from different aetiologies
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
Features:
- Soft paraffin base
- Sterile open-weave gauze presentation
- Contains chlorhexidine which is an active agent against a wide range of bacteria
- Reduces risk of infection
- Soothing and low-adherent
Benefits:
- Soothes and protects the wound and allows free passage of viscous exudate
- Open-weave gauze helps maintain shape and resist fraying when dressing is cut to shape
- Effective against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including MRSA
- Antiseptic efficacy unaffected by serum and blood
