Appeel Sterile sachet: helps remove pain from a dressing change (PDF)
This clinical paper outlines some of the challenges facing wound care professionals. Minimising pain is a major issue, particularly the pain associated with dressing changes, when both wound and peri-wound skin are vulnerable to skin stripping and trauma. Alcohol- and oil-based solvents are unsatisfactory; silicone-based Appeel Sterile Sachet removes all types of dressing easily and gently, and sterility prevents infection.
