medical sterile paraffin gauze for scald wound care  

Description:                                          

Paraffin gauze dressing consists of a leno-weave fabric of cotton or cotton and viscose, which has been impregnated with yellow soft paraffin. The dressing is used as a primary wound contact layer and the paraffin is present to reduce the adherence of the product to the surface of a granulating wound. Two formulations of Paraffin Gauze Dressing are described in the British Pharmacopoeia: they differ in the weight of paraffin base present on the gauze.

Indications:                                          

Paraffin gauze dressing is used as a primary wound contact layer in the treatment of burns, ulcers, skin grafts (both donor and receptor sites), and a variety of traumatic injuries.

Contra-indications:

Although there are no absolute contra-indications to the use of paraffin gauze dressing, if the dressing is placed upon a heavily exuding wound its semi-occlusive nature may cause tissue maceration by preventing the free movement of exudates away from the surface of the wound. This is less likely to occur than if a dressing bearing the higher loading of paraffin were to be used.

Method of use:

Paraffin gauze dressing is applied directly to the surface of the wound and covered with an absorbent pad held in place with tape or a bandage, as appropriate.

Storage:                                                

Paraffin gauze dressing should be stored in a cool and dry place
