Hydrocolloid patches are a type of wound dressing that is used to manage shallow to moderately deep wounds. They are made of a gel-like substance that forms a seal over the wound, creating a moist environment that helps to promote healing.
Hydrocolloid Patches for Wounds are a special kind of wound dressing used in the treatment of mildly exuding wounds, like minor burns or bed sores. The dressing contains mainly hydrocolloid carboxy methyl cellulose(CMC), which is hydrophilic and has excellent absorption and exudates management. These dressings are waterproof, and unlike simpler dressings, they provide a moist and insulating environment to promote wound healing.

| Before use, the wound shall be thoroughly cleaned and the wound skin shall be wiped dry. |
| A hydrocolloid dressing about 2cm wider than the wound edge shall be selected to ensure sufficient adhesion to the skin. |
| If the depth of the wound exceeds 5mm, an appropriate dressing shall be selected to fill the cavity before using hydrocolloid dressing. |
| This product is not suitable for wounds with a large amount of exudate. |
| The swelling and whitening of the dressing after absorption and expansion are normal phenomena. When absorption is saturated, it is suggested to change the dressing. |
| In the early stage of application of hydrocolloid dressing, it may sometimes be found that the wound is enlarged instead, which is caused by the debridement of dressing and is a normal phenomenon. |
| Due to the fusion of hydrocolloid molecules and exudates, the gel is formed. Sometimes it looks like purulent secretion, so it is mistaken for a wound infection. It will be fine after rising the gel with normal saline. |
| The use of hydrocolloid dressings sometimes produces a certain odor, which can disappear after cleaning the wound with normal saline. |
| If there is leakage around the dressing, please replace the dressing immediately. |
