Damaged surfaces, due to action of high temperature, should be covered as soon as possible with the BurnTec dressing. Before use of the dressing, check if the envelope has not been damaged or opened, otherwise the product can be not sterile.

In order to take out the dressing it should be done:

• tear an envelope and take the dressing out
• catch a margin of fibre, take the hydrogel out from the mould. The foil, sticked on the top facilitates taking out of the dressing, therefore it should not be removed before taking out of the hydrogel,
• apply the dressing to the wound with that side which has adhered to the bottom of the mould and remove the covering foil,
• attach the dressing to the wound with bandage or net band,
• replace the dressing every 12 hours.

Remember to use dressings suitable to the size of wound. In spite of the elasticity of the dressing, it should not be tensioned during applying on the wound and care should be taken in order to adhere it to the healthy skin around the wound.
