L Mesitran Soft
Description
Class IIb medical device.
L-Mesitran Soft is a gel containing: 40% medical grade honey, medical grade hypoallergenic lanolin (Medilan®), propylene glycol, PEG 4000 and vitamins C and E. When the gel comes into contact with the wound, fluids are drawn from the surrounding tissues by osmosis. This creates an optimal moist environment for wound healing, stimulating the wound healing process. The gel prepares the wound bed by facilitating autolysis of necrotic and other devitalized material and promoting better migration of epithelial cells.
- Thanks to its strong osmotic activity, L-Mesitran Soft has antimicrobial properties.
- The gel will gradually dilute and can be easily removed according to local wound cleansing protocols.
- L-Mesitran Soft is a primary wound dressing that can be covered with the most commonly used secondary dressings.
- The properties of the gel also help prevent adhesion of the secondary dressing to the wound bed.
- Being produced with natural ingredients, each batch of gel may vary in color (white - yellow - brown), maintaining its properties unchanged.
- The gel may contain sugar crystals, however this will not affect the effectiveness and/or application.
Suitable for:
- chronic wounds;
- pressure ulcers (Stage I-IV);
- venous stasis ulcers;
- fungal wounds (to help deodorize and/or debride);
- acute colonized wounds;
- surgical wounds;
- post-operative wounds;
- traumatic wounds (superficial wounds, cuts);
- minor burns and laser wounds (superficial and partial thickness burns).
Components
Eco-honey, medilan, propylene glycol, PEG 4000 (macrogols), ascorbic acid (vitamin C), vitamin E (DL-alpha-tocopherol acetate).
Warnings
It is not indicated for:
- third degree burns;
- patients with a known sensitivity to honey or any other component;
- dirty, infected and heavily exuding wounds (must be cleaned first);
- deep, narrow cavities.
- Due to the low pH of the dressing, some patients may experience a slight transient burning sensation during application of the dressing. If burning persists and cannot be managed with an analgesic, remove the dressing, clean the area and discontinue use.
- During initial use of the dressing (depending on the levels of wound exudate, interstitial fluid and edema surrounding the wound), the high osmolarity of the dressing may contribute to increased exudate. This can be managed by adjusting the frequency of dressing changes based on the level of exudate.
- Bacterial colonization in chronic wounds is always present and is not a contraindication to the use of L-Mesitran Soft.
- During the healing process, due to autolytic debridement, it is normal for non-viable tissue to be removed from the wound, resulting in an initial increase in wound size. Although an initial increase in size may be attributed to the normal removal of non-viable tissue, seek medical attention if the wound continues to enlarge after the initial dressing changes.
- After removing the dressing, if any material remains on the wound, cleanse the wound with a solution suitable for the treatment until it can be removed without difficulty.
Consult a healthcare provider if you notice signs of infection, which may include increased redness, increased pain, increased wound drainage, increased skin irritation, and changes in wound color and/or odor.
- When opening and applying gel from a new container, make sure the new container is not damaged or previously opened.
- L-Mesitran Soft is intended for single patient use. The container can be reused with the same patient.
- Always close the container after use.
Conservation
Store at room temperature 5°-25°C / 41°-77°F. Store in a dry place. Do not freeze.
Validity with intact packaging: 36 months.
Format
15g pack.
