Product Description

Indications

Urgosorb® is indicated for the local treatment of exudate and bleeding wounds, in the slough and granulation phases.

Urgosorb corda® is indicated for the local treatment of wound cavities.

Composition

Synergy of two natural polymers:

• Incorporation of hydrocolloid (carboxymethyl cellulose) particles in a calcium alginate fiber network.

Directions Instructions for use

• Clean the wound with saline solution.
• Dry the surrounding skin thoroughly with a sterile compress.
• If using an antiseptic for the first time, thoroughly wash the wound with saline solution before applying Urgosorb®.
• Choose the appropriate size of Urgosorb® so as to leave at least 1 to 2 cm of the dressing covering the healthy skin around the wound.
• Apply Urgosorb® directly to the wound.
• For deep or tunnel wounds (anfractuous pressure ulcers, pilonidal sinus), apply Urgosorb® cord liberally without applying excessive pressure.
• Cover Urgosorb® with a secondary dressing: two layers of compresses and a slightly tight dressing or adhesive tape.
• Urgosorb® should be changed when saturated, especially when exudate seeps through the secondary dressing.
• The frequency of renewal depends on the level of exudate: daily for highly exuding wounds or those covered with fibrin-necrotic debris or infection;
• Every 2 days for a clean, moderately exuding wound.
• In case of leg ulcers, Urgosorb® can be moistened with saline solution to facilitate removal.

Contraindications

Urgosorb® is Contraindicated for endonasal rhino-sinusitis surgery, third-degree burns, surgical implants, and the control of severe bleeding.
