More Information

  - FlexiCol is indicated for use in managing light to moderately draining chronic and acute wounds
  - It includes pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, second degree burns, superficial burns and abrasions
• Mode Of Application:
  Select the correct size and shape of Flexicol. The dressing should extend at least a half inch beypnd the edge of the wound on all sides to ensure that it stays firmly in place.
  Flexicol/Flexicol Thin: remove the larger piece of the protective paper backing. Place FlexiCol on the wound holding the dressing by the portion still covered with a thin piece of protective paper backing. When the dressing is firmly in place, remove the remaining thin piece of protective backing paper and press all the edges of the dressing.
  FlexiCol Sacral: remove the protective paper backing and press the dressing into the gluteal fold. The tip of the dressing can point upwards or downwards depending on the position and depth of the ulcer. Press the edges firmly to adhere the dressing.

  In uncomplicated wounds, FlexiCol can be left in place for intervals of up to 7 days or until the wound has completely healed.
• Special Precautions:
  FlexiCol can only be effective when a holistic assessment of the patient and the wound has taken place. Treatment with FlexiCol cannot replace treatment of the cause of the impaired healing.
• General instructions:
  Store between 41 degree F (5 degree C to 30 degree C). Contents sterile unless peel packs are damaged. Do not re-sterilize. Keep out of reach of children.
