Composition
UrgoTul is a non-adhesive, non-occlusive, non-adherent lipid-colloid dressing for wounds, consisting of a polyester mesh impregnated with hydrocolloid particles (Carboxymethylcellulose CMC) and petroleum jelly.

Sterilisation Method
Radio-sterilisation.

Properties
Lipid-Colloid Technology (TLC) is a healing and gelling matrix, an exclusive and patented innovation by Urgo Laboratories.
Its specificity depends on the polymeric matrix that ensures cohesion between the hydrocolloid particles and petroleum jelly in a polyester mesh.
Upon contact with wound exudate, the hydrocolloid particles (CMC) gel and, in combination with the matrix, form a lipid-colloid film that allows:
• the maintenance of a moist environment favourable for healing;
• the stimulation of fibroblast proliferation.
UrgoTul has a greasy composition, without feeling greasy to the touch.
It does not adhere to the wound or the surrounding skin.
Dressing removal is painless for the patient and atraumatic for regenerating tissues.

Instructions for use
Wound preparation
• Clean the wound with saline solution. If an antiseptic is used first, rinse the wound thoroughly with saline solution before applying UrgoTul.
• Carefully dry the surrounding skin.
• UrgoTul can be cut using sterile scissors to adapt the dressing to the wound.
Dressing application
• Remove the protective tabs and apply UrgoTul to the wound.
• Cover UrgoTul with a secondary dressing and secure it with appropriate bandaging.
• Apply a compression bandage if prescribed.
Dressing change
• Change the dressing every 2-4 days (every 1-3 days for patients with epidermolysis bullosa). UrgoTul can be left in place for up to 7 days depending on the wound's evolution.

Precautions
• The sterile packaging must be intact before use. Do not use if the sterile packaging is damaged.
• If clinical signs of local infection are observed, treatment may be replaced with an antibacterial dressing (UrgoTul Ag/Silver, UrgoCell Ag), as per medical advice.
• In the case of deep wounds or fistulas, a part of the UrgoTul dressing must be left visible to allow for easy removal.
• Single-use individual packs: re-using a single-use dressing may expose to the risk of infection.
• Do not re-sterilise.

Status
