Mode of Action:

The open perforated structure allows exudate to pass through into an absorbent secondary dressing. The Silicone layer creates a seal around the wound edge, minimising the risk of maceration.

Benefits:

• Atraumatic and anatomical.
• Can remain in place up to 14 days – making it cost effective.
• Transparent for easy wound inspection.
• Can be used in conjunction with NPWT systems for protection of the wound bed.
• Conforms to body contours.
• Low risk of irritation and reactions.

Areas of use:

Lacerations, skin tears, surgical incisions, partial and full thickness grafts, radiotherapy induced skin damage, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, partial thickness burns, any area of fragile skin.

Instructions for use:

• Clean the wound carefully, if needed, and dry the surrounding skin.
• Choose a size of GentilTac that covers the wound and the surrounding skin by at least 1cm. GentilTac can be cut to size, if needed, before removing the protective film. If more than one piece of GentilTac is required, overlap the dressings, making sure that the pores are not blocked.
• If necessary, moisten gloves to avoid adherence to GentilTac.
• Apply GentilTac over the wound. Smooth in place onto the surrounding skin, ensuring a good seal.
• Where clinically indicated, treatments such as topical steroids, topical antimicrobials or hydrogels can be applied over the top of or under GentilTac.
• Apply a secondary absorbent dressing pad on top of GentilTac. In contoured or jointed areas (e.g. under arm, under breast, inner elbow, groin, deep wounds), ensure sufficient padding is applied to keep the GentilTac held flat against the surface of the wound.
• Fix in place with a suitable fixation device. GentilTac can be used under compression bandages.

GentilTac is intended for clinical use in procedures where silicone contact layers such as Mepitel® or Adaptic™ Touch are commonly selected. Brand names are mentioned for reference only.
