How to Use Ambulance Dressings
To use the Steroplast Ambulance Dressing effectively, follow these steps:
- Ensure the wound area is clean and dry before applying the dressing.
- Open the sterile packaging carefully, maintaining the dressing's sterility.
- Remove the dressing from the packaging, taking care not to touch the wound-contact side of the pad.
- Apply the non-adherent wound pad directly to the injury site, ensuring it covers the entire wound.
- Secure the dressing in place using the attached cohesive bandage strap. Wrap the bandage around the affected area, applying firm but comfortable pressure to control bleeding and protect the wound.
- Check the dressing periodically to ensure it remains in place and monitor for any signs of continued bleeding or infection.
- Seek further medical attention as needed, particularly for severe wounds or persistent bleeding.
Remember, these ambulance dressings are designed for use by trained professionals in emergency situations. If you are unsure about how to properly apply the dressing or have concerns about the severity of the wound, consult a healthcare professional for guidance.
