Collagen Particles Instructions for Use
Dressing wear time should be based on the condition of the wound and clinical assessment. Always consult a physician for changes in wound condition and treatment plan monitoring and follow up:
– Cleanse wound as per physician order: preferably normal saline or non-cytotoxic wound cleanser or wash
– Line wound bed with Medifil II collagen particles up to 1/4 inch depth
– Cover the wound with a secondary dressing: e.g. transparent, gauze, abdominal pad, foam, super-absorbent pad, hydrocolloid to promote thermoregulation and enhance wound healing
How To use Medifil II Particles
Step 1: Prepare the wound bed
Irrigates the wound with sterile water or saline until free of debris using controlled pressure so as not to cause new trauma to the wound.
– Blot wound edges dry
– If desired, apply an ointment/cream to the wound margin and also apply a topical medication to the wound bed (if needed)
Step 2: Application of Medifil II Particles
Apply Medifil II Particles to cover the wound surface:
– Minimally Draining Wounds: Light sprinkle of Medifil to cover the wound bed
– Moderately Draining Wounds: Cover wound bed 1/4″ to 1/8″ deep with Medifil pa
Do not pack the wound tightly with Medifil particles
Apply secondary dressing:
– Cover with a non-adherent absorbent dressing such as gauze or abdominal pads. Change when saturated
– Keep a moist wound environment
– If the wound is infected, change Medifil II Particles daily until the infection is resolved
– If the wound is contaminated, change particles after each event and consider using a transparent film dressing like Tegaderm to protect the wound
– If the wound is undermined and/or tunneled, combine Medifil II Particles with saline. Mix until it is thick, draw into a syringe and apply to tunneled areas. Gently pack the wound with gauze to eliminate dead space.
How to remove Medifil II Particles:
Irrigate wound with saline until dressing loosens and lift gently away
– Minimally Draining Wounds: Dressings are changed every 2-3 days until the wound heals
– Moderately Draining Wounds: Change dressings when saturated
– Undermined/Tunneling Wounds: Flush daily with saline and re-apply Medifil II Particles
