AUST R NUMBER:138652

DIRECTIONS:

1. Wash hands before and after treating the
   wound.
2. Gently clean and dry the wound and
   surrounding skin. Any excess hair should be
   clipped to ensure close approximation to the
   wound. Stop any bleeding (apply gentle
   pressure if necessary) and ensure that the skin
   is completely dry around the wound.
3. Remove dressing from the pouch. Do not cut
   the dressing.
   
4. Remove the top half of the backing paper.
   
5. Remove the second half of the backing paper
   and smooth the dressing down, without
   stretching, ensuring the pad fully covers the
   wound.
   
6. Remove carefully, particularly with elderly or
   fragile skin. Support skin with free hand whilst
   gently peeling dressing away in direction of hair
   growth. Change the dressing as necessary (for
   example: if wet or the pad is soiled).
