• As the UrgoStart® Plus Border includes a super-absorbent layer, the central pad should not be cut. However, the adhesive edges can be cut if necessary using sterile scissors to fit different wound or body shapes.
• If the wound shows signs of local infection, it is recommended that antimicrobial treatment is used first before starting treatment with UrgoStart® Plus Border.
• If an atypical ulcer presents induration or over-granulation, treatment with UrgoStart® Plus Border should only be initiated after verifying that ulcer deterioration is absent, to prevent any delay in diagnosis.
• Regarding Epidermolysis Bullosa (even for long-standing lesions), the use of UrgoStart® Plus Border is not recommended.
• Stinging or even painful sensations may be reported at the start of the treatment. These are usually linked to the healing process and the need to suspend treatment is rare.
• During desloughing, the wound may appear to get larger due to the gradual elimination of slough.
• Concomitant use with a cream, an ointment, an emulsion is not recommended.
• UrgoStart® Plus Border must not be used in a hyperbaric chamber.
• Sterile individual packaging, for single use only: re-using a disposable dressing can lead to the risks of infection.
