Usage and Instructions
Instructions for use:

- Open the package and remove the dressing.
- Remove one section of backing paper, exposing adhesive surface.
- Fixate dressing ensuring wound is centred to the pad.
- Remove rest of the backing paper, smooth border firmly to obtain adhesion.
- Do not stretch the dressing when applying.

Frequency of change: Clearpore should be changed according to the clinical condition of the wound or when saturated. The dressing may be left in the situ for up to 7 days.
Removal:
- Avoid skin trauma by using a stretch and release method to break the adhesive bond rather than pulling it up from the skin.
- Start at one edge of the dressing, gently grasp the edge of the dressing and slowly stretch while remaining parallel to the skin then release.
- Repeat the process around the dressing until the dressing can be lifted away from the wound.
- Dispose as a clinical waste according to local protocols.
Warnings
