How to Use Multidex Gel Maltodextrin Hydrophilic Wound Dressing?
Preparation of Site for Multidex Gel
- Necrotic tissue should be debrided according to acceptable practice or as directed by an attending physician.
- The site should be irrigated liberally with a sterile physiological 0.9% normal saline or a balanced salts solution.
Application of Multidex Gel:
- After irrigation, apply Multidex
- For shallow wound: 1/4″ thick over entire wound site
- For deep wound: fill wound site to surface taking care to fill all undermined areas
- Cover with a non-adherent, non-occlusive dressing such as Covaderm Plus, MultiPad, Sofsorb, or Polyderm Plus. If necessary, tape in place or use roll gauze or Stretch Net to secure dressing.
- Dressing change should be once a day on minimally to moderately draining wounds and twice a day on heavily exudating wounds.
Removal of Multidex Gel:
- Remove non-adherent dressing with care. If dressing adheres to wound, soak with saline for several minutes before removing so the fragile granulation tissue is not disturbed.
- Flush site liberally but gently with a sterile, physiological irrigating solution to remove debris. This will leave newly formed granulation tissue undisturbed.
- Usual frequency of dressing change is once a day, depending upon drainage and the type of secondary dressing.
