Hollister Restore Hydrocolloid Dressing With Tapered Edge

How to Use Restore Plus Hydrocolloid Dressing?

Preparation of wound area

• Wash hands.
• Assemble equipment and take to bedside.
• Identify and inform patient of procedure.
• Provide for privacy.
• Position patient so that wound area is exposed (Remove dressing if present).
• Thoroughly rinse or irrigate the wound area with Restore Wound Cleanser or normal saline, if appropriate. (If necessary, the wound should be debrided).
• Clean and dry the periwound skin to allow for secure adhesion of the dressing.
• Measure the wound using the wound measuring guide.

Application of Dressing

• Choose the correct size Restore Hydrocolloid Dressing so that it extends one inch beyond the wound edges on all sides. (Dressings may be overlapped or cut to accommodate the size of the wound).
• Remove dressing from package. (Restore Hydrocolloid Dressings are provided in sterile packages if aspetic technique is required).
• Remove the release papers from the dressing. (Too much handling of the adhesive may interfere with good dressing and skin contact).
• Center the dressing over the wound site. (The dressing will not adhere to the moist wound surface. If required, fill in dead space prior to application of the dressing).
• Gently press the dressing to the skin and smooth out wrinkles. (For difficult-to-manage sites, hold dressing in place for 60 seconds to improve adherence. Taping of the edges of the dressing is not required but may help in areas of high friction such as heels, elbows, or coccyx).

Removal of Dressing

• Put on gloves.
• Carefully lift an edge of the dressing while pressing down on the skin.
• Continue this procedure around the wound bed until all edges are free of the skin.
• Dispose of dressing properly.
• Wash hands.
• Document dressing change, wound measurements and other pertinent observations regarding the wound or periwound site.
  - Note: Restore Hydrocolloid Dressing should be left in place (not more than 7 days) unless it is uncomfortable, leaking, or there are clinical signs of infection.
