RENASYS -F Foam and -G Gauze ◊ Dressing Kit with Soft Port application Clean and debride Debride any devitalized or necrotic eschar tissue. Cleanse the wound and pat dry. If desired, protect the periwound skin from exposure to moisture and adhesive through the use of skin sealant. Allow the skin sealant to dry fully prior to placement of the transparent film.

If dressing wound with gauze Apply a layer of saline moistened gauze to wound bed. Unfold remaining saline-moistened gauze and loosely fill the entire wound cavity. Avoid over packing the wound. Precaution: If multiple pieces of wound filler are needed to fill the wound profile, count and record how many pieces are present to ensure all pieces are removed at a dressing change to minimize the risk of retention and possible infection.
