Advance Information*

Product Overview

The Chloro Tulle, a specialized wound care product developed by Dr. Sabharwal's Wound Care, is a highly effective solution for the prevention and management of infections in various types of wounds. This product is particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from burns, skin grafts, bedsores, ulcers, minor burns, scalds, lacerations, abrasions, and other skin loss wounds. The dressing is designed to be used as a primary wound contact layer and is impregnated with a medicated ointment to provide maximum therapeutic benefits.

Composition

Chloro Tulle is composed of leno weave cotton gauze, which is renowned for its strength and durability. The gauze is impregnated with an ointment containing petroleum jelly (soft paraffin) blended with 0.5% w/w Chlorhexidine Acetate B.P. This combination ensures that the dressing not only protects the wound but also promotes healing by reducing the risk of infections.

Packaging and Sterilization

To maintain the product's sterility and prevent contamination, each dressing is individually packed between two vegetable parchment papers. The pack is then sealed in a peel-able pouch and subjected to Gamma irradiation, ensuring guaranteed sterility. This meticulous packaging process ensures that the dressing remains uncontaminated until it is ready for use.

Key Features

Leno Weave Gauze

The leno weave gauze used in Chloro Tulle is specifically chosen to prevent the shedding of threads. This feature is crucial as it ensures that no fibers are left behind in the wound, which could potentially cause further irritation or infection.

Gamma Sterile

Each dressing is Gamma irradiated to guarantee sterility. This process ensures that the product is free from any potential contaminants, making it safe for use on even the most sensitive and vulnerable wounds.

Individually Packed

To prevent contamination, each dressing is individually packed. This not only maintains the sterility of the product but also ensures ease of use, as users can be confident that each pack they open is clean and ready for application.

Applications

Burns and Scalds

Chloro Tulle is highly effective in the management of minor burns and scalds. The chlorhexidine in the ointment acts as an antiseptic, reducing the risk of infection while the paraffin base helps to soothe and protect the damaged skin.

Skin Grafts and Donor Sites

For both donor and recipient graft sites, Chloro Tulle provides a protective barrier that helps to prevent infection and promotes healing. The non-adherent nature of the dressing ensures that it can be easily removed without causing trauma to the new tissue.

Bed Sores and Ulcers

In cases of bed sores and leg ulcers, Chloro Tulle serves as an effective primary wound contact layer. The chlorhexidine in the dressing helps to prevent infection, while the paraffin base minimizes adherence to the wound, allowing for easy removal and dressing changes.

Lacerations and Abrasions

For minor lacerations, abrasions, and other skin loss wounds, Chloro Tulle offers protection against infection and aids in the healing process. The dressing's non-adherent property ensures that it does not stick to the wound, making dressing changes less painful and reducing the risk of further damage to the healing tissue.

Usage Instructions

1. Preparation: Ensure that the wound area is clean and free from any debris.
2. Application: Open the peel-able pouch and carefully remove the dressing. Place the gauze side directly on the wound, ensuring full coverage.
3. Securing: Use an appropriate secondary dressing or bandage to secure the Chloro Tulle in place.
4. Monitoring: Regularly monitor the wound and change the dressing as needed, or as advised by a healthcare professional.

Advantages

• Antiseptic Properties: The 0.5% w/w Chlorhexidine Acetate in the ointment provides effective protection against a broad spectrum of bacteria, reducing the risk of infection in the wound.
• Non-Adherent: The paraffin in the dressing ensures that it does not stick to the wound, making dressing changes easier and less painful.
