Product features: Lavanid - Wound Gel/Wound Gel V+ Hydrogels with polyhexanide as a preservative for cleaning and moisturizing chronic and acute wounds Description and product profile: Chronic wounds are generally covered with non-viable and necrotic tissue and colonized with germs. For successful wound treatment, the wound debris must be removed, for example, by surgical debridement. Gentle wound cleansing and moisturizing are also necessary. Chronic wounds exhibit impaired wound healing. Therefore, treatment with particularly tissue-compatible preparations is indicated. Lavanid Wound Gel and Lavanid Wound Gel V+ are sterile, ready-to-use wound gels for cleansing and moisturizing wounds. Lavanid Wound Gel V+ is more viscous than Lavanid Wound Gel. Polyhexanide 0.04% is used as a preservative. Polyhexanide is considered the agent of choice for chronic wounds and burns. In addition to cleansing and moisturizing wounds, the wound gel is also suitable for use as a preservative dressing, for example, in wounds colonized with multi-resistant bacteria. Preservative dressings reduce the risk of germs spreading from the wound into the patients environment and protect the wound from germs entering from the outside. Ingredients: Ringers solution (isotonic electrolyte solution consisting of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride dihydrate, water for injection), glycerin, macrogol, hydroxyethylcellulose, polyhexanide 0.04%. Areas of application: The wound gel is used to moisten and clean wounds, as well as for the preservative moistening of dressings and wound pads. Tissue compatibility: The combination of Ringers solution with 0.04% polyhexanide has proven to be very well tolerated by tissue in experimental and clinical studies. Clinical studies with the wound gel have shown that the regeneration of healthy tissue is not impaired. Local irritation does not occur. Application is painless for the patient. Due to its good tissue compatibility, the wound gel is also suitable for repeated and long-term wound treatment. Instructions for use: Prepare and clean the wound as usual. Apply the wound gel to the wound or a wound dressing (e.g., compresses or bandages). Dress the wound as usual. The wound gel remains on the wound until the next dressing change. For optimal wound hydration, it is recommended to increase the amount of wound gel with increasing intervals between dressing changes. If the dressing sticks to the wound during a dressing change, thoroughly moisten the area with an rinsing solution (e.g., Lavanid Wound Irrigation Solution) before removing the dressing. If the wound gel is to be reused, observe the instructions and information regarding its shelf life. Contraindications: The wound gel must not be used: in case of hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients, in the area of cartilage and joints. There is currently insufficient experience regarding the use of this product during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Therefore, the wound gel should only be used when absolutely necessary. Precautions for use and warnings: For external use only. Do not mix with additives. Sterile as long as the packaging is intact. Do not resterilize! Critical changes to usability are possible. Do not use after the expiry date. Interactions with other substances: When used in combination with other wound care products, the instructions for use of these products should be checked for possible interactions with the ingredients of this wound gel. Due to incompatibility issues with the ingredient polyhexanide, the wound gel must not be used in combination with anionic substances (e.g., anionic surfactants or anionic gelling agents, as well as products containing povidone-iodine). If these substances have come into contact with the wound beforehand, they must be thoroughly rinsed away. Side effects: The ingredient polyhexanide can cause allergic reactions. In isolated cases, acute immune system reactions (anaphylactic reactions) have been reported. Users and/or patients are advised to report any serious incidents related to the product to the manufacturer and the relevant authorities. Information and instructions regarding shelf life: The expiration date is printed on the container. Do not use after the expiration date! Once opened, the product has a shelf life of one month. The wound gel is sterile as long as the packaging is unopened and undamaged. Although sterility is lost after opening, due to the preservatives, a usage period of one month after opening is possible, provided the contents are protected from contamination. The container must not come into contact with the wound. The opening must be closed immediately after each use. Any gel residue on the opening should be wiped away with a sterile compress.
