Product Description

Sterile paraffin vaseline gauze dressing

Paraffin gauze is one of the simplest dressings for a burn. Paraffin gauze is covered in a soft tacky substance a bit like petroleum jelly (brand name Vaseline). Brand names include Jelonet.

Many doctors and nurses use paraffin gauze. They cover the dressing with cotton wool and a stretchy bandage.[1] Although it's a common treatment, there is very little research comparing paraffin gauze with other types of dressings.

We found one small study (a randomised controlled trial) that compared paraffin gauze dressings with clear film dressings. Researchers didn't find much difference between the treatments in how long the burns took to heal and how much pain the burns caused. Burns covered with paraffin gauze healed in seven days on average.[2]

You need to be careful when you use dressings that contain paraffin, as these can catch fire easily.[3] Don't smoke or use a naked flame when using these type of dressings. And change your clothes and bedding regularly as the paraffin can seep into these fabrics.

 

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Paraffin maintains a moist environment & prevents adherence to surface
• Allows easy drainage of wound exudates
• Changing of dressing is painless due to non-adhesion to wound
• Has high absorbency that keeps even heavy exuding wounds clean
• It is terminally sterilized by gamma irradiation

INDICATIONS

• Minor burns & scalds
• Lacerations, Abrasions and other skin loss wounds
• Donor and Recipient graft sites
• Leg ulcers

 

CONTRA INDICATIONS 
Although there are no absolute contra-indications to the use of Atrauman, if the dressing is placed upon a heavily exuding wound, its semi-occlusive nature may cause tissue maceration by preventing the free movement of exudate away from the surface of the wound. This is less likely to occur if a dressing bearing the lower loading of paraffin base is used.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Atrauman is applied directly to the surface of the wound and covered with an absorbent pad held in place with tape or a bandage, as appropriate. Frequency of Change: The frequency of dressing changes will depend entirely upon the nature of the wound. If Atrauman is left in position for prolonged periods of time, it can become adherent and cause tissue damage upon removal.
