Copper Oxide Dressings

FDA-cleared copper oxide dressings are advanced wound care dressings designed to support healing in chronic and complex wounds. The dressings provide continuous antimicrobial protection and deliver bioactive copper ions that support angiogenesis, collagen formation, improved granulation, and regulated inflammation. This helps clinicians address stalled and hard to heal wounds with a safe, non-irritating, and clinically supported option.

Benefits

Copper oxide dressings are soft, flexible, and moldable nonwoven dressings impregnated with copper oxide. They are moisture vapor permeable, non-irritating, and safe for prolonged use, with continuous copper ion activity and availability in both adhesive and non-adhesive formats. The bioactive copper technology supports angiogenesis, collagen formation, healthy granulation, and balanced cytokine activity while providing continuous antimicrobial protection. These combined properties help clinicians manage chronic, stalled, and complex wounds by maintaining a stable moisture environment and promoting effective tissue repair.

Indications

Copper oxide dressings are indicated for the management of wounds that benefit from a moist wound environment. This includes chronic and acute wounds such as diabetic ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure injuries, donor sites, surgical wounds, superficial burns, and partial thickness wounds. The dressings may be used on wounds with mild to moderate levels of exudate.

Contraindications

Do not use on patients with a known sensitivity or allergy to copper or any dressing components. Do not use on third-degree burns. Do not use on patients where occlusive dressings are contraindicated.

Warnings and Precautions

Use under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Monitor the wound regularly for signs of infection or deterioration. If redness, increased pain, excessive irritation, or abnormal wound conditions occur, discontinue use and evaluate the wound. Do not re-use the dressing. Single use dressing. Change frequency depends on wound condition and exudate level. The dressing may remain in place for up to 7 days as determined by clinical assessment. Remove the dressing prior to MRI procedures if required by facility protocols. For non-adhesive formats, a secondary dressing is required to secure the product. Avoid using the dressing in combination with topical agents that may interfere with copper ion activity unless directed by a clinician.

Adverse Effects/Reactions

Localized irritation, sensitivity reactions, or discoloration of the surrounding skin may occur in rare cases. If adverse reactions appear, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Storage Requirements

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the product in its original packaging until use. Do not use if the packaging is damaged or previously opened. Avoid excessive heat or moisture during storage.

Active Ingredients

Copper oxide

Inactive Ingredients

Nonwoven viscose rayon fibers and polypropylene layers that serve as the structural material for the dressing. These materials do not contribute antimicrobial or bioactive effects.

Mode of Use/Application

Clean the wound according to standard clinical protocols and select an appropriately sized copper oxide dressing. Apply the dressing directly to the wound bed with the (orange) copper impregnated side facing the wound. Ensure full contact with the wound surface. For non-adhesive formats, secure the dressing with a clinically appropriate secondary cover. For adhesive formats, press lightly around the border to maintain proper placement. Use aseptic technique during application.

Removal & Change Frequency

Gently lift the dressing from the wound bed using aseptic technique. If the dressing adheres lightly, moisten with sterile saline to ease removal. The dressing is single use and should be discarded after removal. Change frequency depends on wound condition, exudate level, and clinical judgment. The dressing may remain in place for up to 7 days when exudate levels are low, but more frequent changes may be needed for wounds with moderate drainage.

Additional Recommended Dressings

Non adhesive copper oxide dressings should be secured with a clinically appropriate secondary dressing such as a bordered foam, gauze wrap, conforming bandage, or adhesive retention sheet. Additional moisture management or protection layers may be used based on wound depth, exudate level, or anatomical location according to clinical practice guidelines.

Construction

The dressing consists of a nonwoven inner layer of viscose rayon fibers impregnated with copper oxide and an outer layer of polypropylene containing copper oxide particles. This multilayer design provides continuous copper ion activity, moisture vapor permeability, softness, and flexibility to support wound conformability and comfort.

Warranty

Copper oxide dressings are supplied sterile for single use. They are warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of purchase when stored and used according to labeled instructions. No warranty is provided for reuse, reprocessing, or application outside of recommended guidelines.
