Description
Medical Device Class IIA (Directive 93/42/EEC). Non-sterile.
Cutaneous gel for topical use. Gel dressing based on Hyaluronic Acid and Silver Sulfadiazine.
Indicated for the local treatment of skin lesions such as: abrasions, excoriations, cuts, wounds, burns, lesions, skin irritations and dermatological conditions in general. It can be used to promote the healing process of the wound, protecting it from the risk of infection. The presence of the gel also promotes the removal of non-viable fragments and accumulations of fibrin and eschar.
Hyaluronic Acid, thanks to its peculiar hygroscopic power, in the presence of skin damage, helps maintain a microenvironment favorable to the restoration of the skin's biological properties, such as elasticity and hydration.
Latex-free.

Instructions for use
After proper cleansing of the lesion, apply a uniform layer of SOFARGEN Repair 2 or 3 mm thick to the affected surfaces. The gel can be applied directly to the lesions, or first spread on a sterile gauze to achieve the moisturizing effect, or on a polyurethane or semi-occlusive dressing as a cleanser. In this case, it can be left in situ for 24 to 72 hours. SOFARGEN Repair is also a valid substitute for the more commonly used hydrogels.
The application of the gel should continue without interruption once or twice a day, as long as there is a possibility of infection and until complete healing, both in spontaneous and surgical repairs. With each renewal of the application, thoroughly cleanse the lesions with water or physiological saline solution.
