PIC AQUABLOCK WATERPROOF PATCHES MEDIUM 20 UNITS

Description:

PIC AQUABLOCK WATERPROOF PATCHES MEDIUM 20 UNITS are sterile, waterproof adhesive wound dressings designed to protect minor everyday injuries while allowing you to continue normal activities, including showering and swimming. These transparent, latex-free and hypoallergenic patches create an effective barrier against water, dirt and bacteria, helping to reduce the risk of infection and support optimal wound healing.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Wound preparation:
  • Carefully cleanse the wound and surrounding skin with mild soap and water or an appropriate antiseptic solution as advised by a healthcare professional.
  • Rinse thoroughly and gently pat dry with a clean, sterile gauze or towel. The skin must be completely dry before application to ensure proper adhesion.
• Application steps:
  • Open the sachet or packaging only when ready to use, handling the patch by the edges to avoid touching the central pad.
  • Peel off the protective backing film from the adhesive side of the patch.
  • Position the central absorbent pad directly over the wound, ensuring full coverage of the injured area.
  • Gently press the adhesive edges onto the surrounding healthy skin, smoothing out from the center to the edges to remove wrinkles and air bubbles.
• Duration of use and replacement:
  • Change the patch at least once daily or sooner if it becomes loose, dirty, wet at the edges, or visibly saturated with exudate.
  • After bathing or swimming, check adhesion; replace with a new patch if the seal is compromised.
  • Continue use until the wound has closed and no longer requires protection, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Removal:
  • Gently lift one corner of the patch and slowly peel it back along the skin, not straight up, to reduce discomfort.
  • If the patch adheres strongly, you may moisten the edges with water to ease removal.
• Use only on clean, superficial wounds. Do not use on deep, heavily bleeding, infected or heavily exuding wounds unless instructed by a healthcare professional.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides a waterproof barrier that helps keep wounds dry during showering, bathing and swimming, supporting a cleaner healing environment.
• Helps protect against external contaminants such as dirt, bacteria and friction, reducing the risk of minor wound infections.
• Transparent, low-profile design offers discreet protection, allowing visual monitoring of the covered area without removing the patch.
• Latex-free and hypoallergenic construction is suitable for sensitive skin, helping to minimize the risk of allergic reactions and irritation.
• Soft, absorbent pad cushions the wound and absorbs light exudate, enhancing comfort during daily activities.
• Easy-to-use, ready-to-apply format supports consistent first aid practice at home, at work, during travel and sports.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• For external use only on intact surrounding skin and superficial wounds. Do not apply directly to deep, puncture, heavily bleeding or extensively burned areas.
• Do not use on infected wounds, heavily exuding wounds or large burns unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.
• Discontinue use immediately if signs of allergy or irritation occur, such as redness, itching, rash, swelling or burning sensation, and consult a doctor or pharmacist.
• Do not reuse patches; single-use only. Reusing may increase the risk of infection and reduce adhesive performance.
• Do not apply over mucous membranes (eyes, mouth, nose, genital area) or on very fragile skin without medical advice.
• If the wound shows signs of infection (increased redness, warmth, swelling, pain, pus, unpleasant odor, or fever), seek medical attention promptly.
• Consult your doctor before use on children, elderly individuals with fragile skin, or if you have underlying conditions that impair healing (such as diabetes, peripheral vascular disease or immune disorders).
• Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant or nursing and have concerns about wound healing or skin sensitivity.
• Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental misuse or ingestion of packaging materials.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease; this product is a wound care aid and part of general first aid.

Side Effects:

• Possible mild local skin reactions at the application site, such as redness, itching or irritation, especially in individuals with very sensitive skin or adhesive intolerance.
• Rarely, allergic contact dermatitis may occur due to sensitivity to adhesive or dressing materials; discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms persist or worsen.
• If pain, swelling, increased redness or discharge develop under the patch, remove it and consult a healthcare professional to rule out infection or other complications.
