Mode of Use/Application

Remove secondary dressing. Irrigate wound with sterile saline solution to clean wound site. Remove blue protective cap from the nozzle. Swab the snap-off tip and nozzle of the pack with a suitable antiseptic swab. Snap the patterned tip off the nozzle. Keeping the nozzle tip clear of the wound surface, gently press the bowl of the pack to dispense gel into the wound. Smooth INTRASITE* Gel over surface of wound to a depth of approximately 5mm (0.2"). Discard any unused gel. Cover with a secondary dressing of choice.

Removal & Change Frequency

INTRASITE* Gel can be removed from the wound by rinsing with sterile saline solution. On necrotic and sloughy wounds, it is recommended that the dressing is changed at least every 3 days. On clean granulating wounds, the frequency of dressing changes depends on the clinical condition of the wound and the amount of exudate produced.
