Indications

TRITEC™ Silver dressings provide an antimicrobial barrier to microbial colonization in the dressing and reduce microbial penetration through the dressing. TRITEC™ Silver dressings are indicated for the management of acute and chronic wounds, partial-thickness burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, lacerations, abrasions, and stage 1-4 dermal ulcers (vascular, venous, pressure, and diabetic).

Contraindications

TRITEC™ Silver dressings should not be used on patients with a known sensitivity to silver. In case of suspected allergic reaction, discontinue use immediately and contact your health care provider.

Warnings and Precautions

TRITEC™ Silver dressings are not approved for use directly on full-thickness burns. The Active Fluid Management® performance of TRITEC™ Silver dressings may be impaired by use with petrolatum-based ointments. The use of TRITEC™ Silver dressings during radiation treatment, or examinations such as x-rays, ultrasonic treatment, diathermy, microwaves, MRI, or HBO, has not been demonstrated. Use of TRITEC™ Silver dressings during pregnancy or lactation and for pediatrics has not been demonstrated.

Mode of Use/Application

TRITEC™ Silver dressings can be used throughout the healing process. Prepare the wound bed according to clinical protocol such as debridement and/or cleaning and rinsing with sterile saline or water.
Remove the dressing from the package and inner liner, taking note of the printing on the dressing.
For moderately to heavily draining wounds, the printed side of the dressing should be applied away from the wound bed with an absorbent secondary dressing secured on top. For non- to lightly draining wounds, the printed side of the dressing may be applied toward the wound bed. The dressing may be pre-wet with sterile saline, sterile water, or wound gel to provide additional hydration. A secondary absorbent dressing may not be necessary.
Regardless of which side of the TRITEC™ Silver dressing is placed toward the wound, secure with an appropriate dressing such as roll gauze, adhesive bordered gauze, composite island dressing, transparent film, or tape. TRITEC™ Silver dressings may be used under compression or in conjunction with negative pressure wound therapy. Optimal performance of TRITEC™ Silver dressings requires direct contact with the wound. TRITEC™ Silver dressings can be cut, folded, or wrapped as necessary.

Removal & Change Frequency

Primary dressing change 1 to 2 times per week:
Deep wounds:
-Higher drainage: TRITEC™ Silver applied for "Higher Drainage" or TRITEC™ Silver Strips
-Lower drainage: TRITEC™ Silver applied for "Lower Drainage" or TRITEC™ Silver Strips pre-wet with saline solution or wound gel

Shallow wounds:
- Higher drainage: TRITEC™ Silver applied for "Higher Drainage"

Directions for removal:
