Tecasorb application instruction videos

Every patient must be educated about their treatment and given proper instructions.

  • What material is used in Tecasorb
  • What is the purpose of using this material
  • How is this material used to manage various types of wounds
  • Black colouring of Tecasorb is neither harmful nor dangerous for the patient
  • If there are residues of black fibres left in the wound or the adjacent area, they should be carefully removed, however, they are not dangerous and cause no adverse skin reaction.

At the beginning it is possible to use Tecasorb on a daily basis, and as the wound is healing, the dressing may be changed once in 2 to 4 days

Every video starts with the same scene:

Close-up to a table with treatment tools and materials:

  1. Gloves, gauze pads, wooden blades
  2. Various types of solutions used to cleanse the wound during the dressing change (including iodine preparation, which, however, is not used with Tecasorb)
  3. Debrisoft – special pad used to remove debris from the wound bottom
  4. Indifferent ointments used to treat the adjacent area, such as zinc or camphor ointment
  5. Hydrophilic bandage
  6. Elastic short stretch bandage used in compression therapy
  7. Tools used to treat the adjacent area (such as hyperkeratosis present in diabetic defects – malum perforans pedis), scissors, forceps, scalpel, single use curette (used to remove scales and crusts around the defect, that prevent healing)
  8. Close-up to a package of 10 Tecasorb dressings, one is taken out before it is applied onto the wound
  9. The bed is covered with a single-use paper sheet that is changed for every patient
  10. The patient is positioned in a comfortable position to allow easy wound management
