Composition UrgoTul is a non-adhesive, non-occlusive and non-adherent lipid-colloidal dressing to the wound, formed by a polyester weave impregnated with hydrocolloid particles (Carboxymethylcellulose CMC) and Vaseline.
Method of sterilization Radio-sterilization.
Property Lipido-Colloidal Technology (TLC) is a healing and gelling matrix, an exclusive and patented innovation from Laboratories Urgo.
Its specificity depends on the polymeric matrix which guarantees the cohesion between the hydrocolloid particles and the petroleum jelly in a polyester mesh.
In contact with the exudate of the lesion, the hydrocolloid particles (CMC) gel and form, in association with the matrix, a lipid-colloidal film which allows:
• maintaining a humid environment favorable for healing;
• stimulation of the proliferation of fibroblasts.
UrgoTul has a fatty composition, without being so to the touch.
It adheres neither to the lesion nor to the surrounding skin.
Removal of the dressing is painless for the patient and atraumatic for the regenerating tissues.
Instructions for Use Preparation of the lesion • Clean the lesion with a physiological solution. If an antiseptic is used first, rinse the lesion carefully with saline before applying UrgoTul.
• Carefully dry the surrounding skin.
• UrgoTul can be cut using sterile scissors to adapt the dressing to the wound.
Application of the dressing • Remove the protective tabs and apply UrgoTul to the lesion.
• Cover UrgoTul with a secondary dressing and secure it with an appropriate bandage.
• Apply a compression bandage if prescribed.
Changing the dressing • Change the dressing every 2-4 days (every 1-3 days for patients with epidermolysis bullosa). UrgoTul can be left in place for up to 7 days depending on the evolution of the lesion.
Precautions • Sterile protection must be intact before use. Do not use if the sterile shield is damaged.
• If clinical signs of local infection are observed, treatment can be replaced with an antibacterial dressing (UrgoTul Ag / Silver, UrgoCell Ag), depending on medical advice.
• In case of deep wounds or fistulas, part of the UrgoTul dressing should be left visible to allow for easy removal.
• Single use single packs: Reusing a single use dressing could expose you to risk of infection.
• Do not sterilize again.
