Usage/Application

Ideal for wound packing, cavity wounds, tunneling wounds, draining wounds, post-procedure wound care, clinics, hospitals, long-term care facilities, assisted living, home care, and caregiver-supported wound management where iodoform packing strip has been recommended. Use the packing strip as directed by a healthcare professional to pack or fill wound cavities, tunnelling wounds, or draining wounds, since wound packing is a clinical skill that should be performed by or under the direction of a healthcare professional. Open the sterile packaging just before use, measure or cut the strip as needed, and pack the wound loosely per instructions, ensuring the packing is documented and completely removed at each dressing change. Because it contains iodoform, an iodine-based antiseptic, do not use it with an iodine sensitivity, and use it with caution and professional guidance for people with thyroid disorders, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for neonates, avoiding large-area or prolonged use since iodine can be absorbed. Change the packing according to the wound-care plan, monitor the wound for signs of infection, and follow the care team's guidance, since cavity, tunnelling, deep, infected, or non-healing wounds require professional assessment.
