Inadine Dressing: The Ultimate Wound Care Solution for Effective Healing

Inadine Dressing consists of a low adherent knitted viscose fabric impregnated with a polyethylene glycol base containing 10% povidone iodine; equivalent to 1.0% available iodine.

Even in cases of infection, the Inadine PVP-I Non-Adhesive Dressing is intended to keep the wound safe. In addition to being used to treat ulcerative wounds, Inadine dressings may also be used to stop small burns and traumatic skin loss injuries from becoming infected. It can also be used in combination with systemic antibiotics in severely infected wounds.

In a clinical assessment study, ninety percent of patients said they did not experience any pain when changing their dressings.

Povidone iodine has been shown to be efficacious against MRSA and possesses a broad range of antibacterial activity.

Key Features of Inadine Dressing 

Some of the key features of Inadine wound dressing: 

• Reliable and Efficient:

A dependable, effective, and non-adherent dressing, Inadine dressing is intended to control bacterial contamination and avert infection in both acute and chronic wounds.

• Non-Adherent:

Inadine Non-Adhesive Dressing in addition to minimizing adhesion to the wound bed, dressings have been demonstrated in clinical practice to lessen patient discomfort and lower the risk of granulation tissue injury during dressing removal.

Inadine PVP-I Dressing will turn white after it is dressed from orange. When compared to other dressings, the color change gives an indication of how often dressings should be changed, reducing needless dressing changes. This might increase treatment’s cost-effectiveness.

How to Apply Inadine Dressing? 

• Dressing Preparation:

1. When necessary, Inadine Dressing can be cut using clean scissors or folded to fit the wound bed.
2. It is best to cut Inadine Dressing whilst one or two backing papers are in place.

• Dressing Application:

1. Remove one backing paper. 
2. Peel off the dressing from the remaining backing paper and apply Inadine Dressing directly to the wound.

• Secondary Dressing Application:

1. Cover Inadine Dressing with a secondary dressing such as TIELLE. Choose the secondary dressing based on the level of wound fluid. Apply any secondary cover or retention/compression bandage.

• Dressing Change and Removal:

1. When the Inadine Dressing color fades this indicates loss of antiseptic efficacy, and the wound dressing should be changed. In the early stages, particularly in cases with extremely infected wounds or wounds producing a lot of wound fluid, it may be changed up to twice a day.
2. Gently remove the secondary dressing.
3. Removal of Inadine Dressing may be helped by gentle stretching of the dressing at diagonally opposite corners.
