Instructions for use for CUTICERIN 7.5x7.5 cm gauze with ointment coating, 1 pc

Cuticerin is an ointment dressing containing eucerite with a size of 7.5 x 7.5 cm. It serves as a primary layer between the wound and the secondary dressing. Cuticerin does not stick to the wound and allows for a painless dressing change. The ointment coating protects the wound surface and the wound edges. Excess exudate can drain into an absorbent secondary dressing. The smooth acetate fabric with a small mesh size minimises the risk of granulation tissue ingrowth. Cuticerin is permeable to air and exudate to prevent skin maceration. It protects the granulation and epithelial tissue. Dressing changes can be performed atraumatically and wound dormancy remains undisturbed. Cuticerin can be used for the treatment of superficial, exuding wounds such as burns, abrasions, radiation damage and split skin sites. It is latex-free and can be purchased online. The manufacturer is Smith & Nephew GmbH, based in Hamburg.
