Bactigras

Description

Bactigras is a chlorhexidine acetate tulle gras dressing indicated for a wide range of wounds where there is a risk of infection, or on already infected wounds in conjunction with systemic antibacterial.

It is a soothing non-adherent wound contact layer intended for topical use only, to reduce the incidence of infection in surgical, traumatic, and ulcerative wounds and other skin conditions. For already infected wounds, the dressing can be used in conjunction with other topical and systemic antibacterial agents.

Bactigras is an antiseptic, soft paraffin dressing that soothes and protects the wound whilst helping to reduce wound infection and inflammation. It has low adherence and allows the wound to drain freely into an absorbent secondary dressing. Bactigras is suitable for covering wounds such as minor burns, lacerations, abrasions, and graft sites. Bactigras benefits include:

• Soothes and protects the wound and allows free passage of viscous exudate.
• Open-weave gauze helps maintain shape and resist fraying when the dressing is cut to shape
• Effective against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, including MRSA
• Antiseptic efficacy unaffected by serum and blood
