Disposable Sterile Dressing Kits for Wounds

Description

wound dressing kit is used in combination with"Reco pump"and "Negative pressure wound therapy dressing".It maintains a negative pressure of 75mmHg-150mmHg (10Kpa~20Kpa)on the wound surface through a negative pressure device, continuous negative pressure can promptly clear the exudate and source of infection from the wound,which is effective prevent pollution and infection, and protect the wound environment. It can help reduce the risk of seroma, hematoma,dehiscence and infection after surgery.The product is mainly used for wounds with low to medium exudation.

wound dressing kit including two NPWT dressings and one  pump.

Battery Type: Alkaline Battery
Power: 3V
Sound: 50db
 

Disposable npwt device is indicated for patients who would benefit from a negative pressure wound therapy as it may promote wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infection materials.

Examples of appropriate wound types includes:Chronic wound Scab of necrotic tissue Wound with active bleeding Non-curable osteomyelitis Pressure ulcers Venous leg ulcers Diabetic foot ulcers Donor sites

Low to medium exudation.

The RECO wound dressing kit is suitable for use both in hospital and homecare setting.

 

1.Remove any excess hair to ensure close approximation of the dressing to the wound.If necessary,irrigate the wound with sterile saline and pat the wound dry.

2. Using a clean technique, peel off the

central release handle and place the dressing centrally over the wound to reduce the chance of wound fluid coming into contact with the port. The port should be uppermost from the wound (depending on the patient's primary position),placed on intact skin wart and not extending over the wound to prevent fluid pooling around the port and blocking the negative pressure. Remove the other two handles and smooth the dressing around the wound to prevent creasing.Reposition if required to ensure border is not creased.

3.Once the dressing is in place,remove

the pump and the batteries from the tray. Insert the batteries.Replace the cover.

4.Twist the fittings together to connect

the pump to the dressing.Press the yellow power button to start applying negative pressure.Light 2 will be on (indicating that the pump is working to establish NPWT).Depending on the size of the wound, the pump should take up to 180 seconds to establish negative pressure wound therapy. If unsuccessful,all lights will be on after 5 minutes.

5. If using SKIN PREP prior to application

of the fixation strips(see Precautions), wipe the area surrounding the dressing and allow skin to dry.

6.Apply the fixation strips to each of the

four sides of the dressing.Remove top carrier on the strip after each one has been applied.These strips maintain the seal over the wear time of the dressing. In awkward areas,it may be useful to apply the strips to help achieve a seal prior to switching on the pump.Place each strip so that it overlaps the dressing border by approximately 1cm(% in.).Ensure tubing is not twisted or trapped between clothing.

Guidance on wound suitability for

management with RECO

RECO should be used on wounds which fit comfortably within the area of the pad, observing precautions on port positioning (on intact skin and not extending over the wound).

As a guide:

Depth-Wounds greater than 0.5cm(/4in.)in depth are likely to require a foam or gauze NPWT filler to ensure adequate treatment of all the wound surfaces. Wounds treated with the larger dressing sizes of the RECO system should generally be no more than 2cm(% in.)in depth.

Exudate-RECO is intended for use on wounds where the level of exudate is low (nominally 0.6g of liquid exudate/cm2 of wound area/24 hours)to moderate (nominally 1.1g of liquid exudate/cm2 of wound area/24 hours).1g of exudate is approximately equal to 1ml of exudate. When used on a moderately exuding wound, the size of the wound should generally be no more than 25% of the dressing pad area.
