BACTIGRAS™ is a gauze of leno weave impregnated with White Soft Paraffin BP containing 0.5% Chlorhexidine Acetate BP. It is presented sterile either as individual dressings in peel-apart pouches or as rolls in pouches which can be opened by means of a tear-notch. BACTIGRAS acts as a barrier between the wound and a secondary dressing, allowing exudate to pass into an absorbent secondary dressing. The chlorhexidine acetate antiseptic is slowly released from the dressing, giving long lasting action against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria.
Instructions for use:-
1. Cleanse the wound as per local clinical protocols. 2. Select the correct size dressing and peel open the pouch (or tear end from roll pack). 3. Using gloves and forceps, remove protector papers. 4. Lay over wound in a single layer in direct contact with the wound surface. 5. Apply a secondary absorbent dressing if required and secure in place with a dressing retention bandage or dressing fixation sheet. 6. Removal: BACTIGRAS may be left in place when the secondary dressing is changed. The frequency of changing will depend on the clinical circumstances and this can vary from more than once a day to twice per week. 7. If the dressing sticks soak it off gently with sterile saline solution.
