FAQ's

Island dressings are primarily used to cover and protect a wide range of wounds, including cuts, burns, abrasions, surgical sites, and post-operative wounds. They provide a sterile environment, protecting the wound from external contaminants while promoting healing.
Island dressings are designed with an integrated adhesive border that covers the wound entirely, providing a protective, sterile environment. Regular dressings may require a separate adhesive or bandage to secure them in place.
Island dressings are suitable for low to moderate exudating wounds, including minor cuts, abrasions, and surgical wounds. For more severe or heavily draining wounds, you may need a dressing with higher absorbency or special properties.
To apply an island dressing, first clean and dry the wound site. Remove the sterile packaging and place the dressing over the wound, ensuring the adhesive border is securely fixed to the skin, covering the entire wound. Press gently to ensure a good seal around the edges.
Yes, the fabric of island dressings is breathable, allowing moisture to evaporate while still providing a barrier to contaminants. This helps to keep the wound dry and promotes healing.
Island dressings are designed to stay securely in place during everyday activities, but it’s important to ensure the dressing remains dry. If the dressing gets wet, it should be replaced with a fresh one to maintain protection.
Island dressings typically need to be changed every 1-3 days, or as recommended by a healthcare provider, depending on the level of exudate and the specific needs of the wound.
Yes, island dressings come in various sizes to suit different wound types and locations. You can choose the appropriate size based on the wound area to ensure proper coverage and comfort.
No, island dressings are single-use only. Once the dressing is saturated or the wound site has healed, it should be replaced with a fresh dressing.
Island dressings are typically made from a soft, non-woven fabric with an absorbent pad in the centre. The adhesive border is designed to be gentle on the skin, offering secure adhesion without causing irritation.
