Indications Bactigras is intended for use as a wound contact layer where the wound is no more than 10% of the body area where there is a risk of infection, or on already infected wounds in conjunction with systemic antibiotics. - Minor burns and scalds - Lacerations, abrasions and other skin loss wounds - Donor and recipient graft sites - Leg ulcers Administration: Step 1: Cleanse the wound using standard techniques. Select the correct size of dressing and peel open the pouch (or tear the end of the roll pack). Using gloves and forceps, remove the protector paper. Lay the dressing over the wound in a single layer, in direct contact with the wound surface. Step 2: Apply a secondary dressing if required and secure in place with a dressing retention bandage or dressing fixation sheet. Step 3: Bactigras* may be left in place when the absorbent secondary dressing is changed. The frequency of changing will depend on the clinical circumstances and this can vary from more than once per day to twice per week. If the dressing adheres, soak it gently with sterile saline solution.
