Description

Safe and Sound Health’s Burn Gel Dressing Kit immediately works to cool and relieve pain from 1st and 2nd-degree burns. The emergency kit contains one hydrogel-soaked burn dressing and a bandage with safety pins for securing the dressing.

Water is traditionally used for cooling a burn or scald, but this method requires the patient to stay near the source of water, and depending on the location of the burn or scald, it can be challenging to apply. Hydrogel soaked dressings provide the same cooling effects as water. Because the gel is thick and the dressing is soaked in the gel, it stays on the burn and doesn’t evaporate. The hydrogel burn dressing instantly removes heat from a burn or scald, dissipating the heat and preventing the burn from progressing deeper into the skin tissue.

The hydrogel burn dressing provides instantly relieves pain following a burn or scald, quickly cooling the skin and creating a barrier between the wound and airborne contamination.

• Immediately cools the burn and prevents further tissue damage
• The kit comes with bandage and safety pins for securing the burns dressing
• Provides instant pain-relief to the burnt or scalded area
• Creates a barrier between the wound and airborne contamination
• Quick and convenient to apply

How to use 

1. First, remove the burn dressing from the packaging and apply immediately to the burn area

Description

Safe and Sound Health’s Self-Adhesive bandage is a multifunctional self-adhesive first aid dressing. It can be used to create and apply localised pressure to soft tissue injuries such as sprains, strains, muscle injuries, swollen limbs and bruising. The Self-Adhesive Bandage applies even and stable pressure to the injured area, and the stretchy material allows you to choose the level of compression you need depending on how much support is required.

The Self-Adhesive Bandage sticks to itself, making application easy and hassle-free. The bandage is free from adhesives or glues and only sticks to itself, not the skin or hairs, and leaves no residue once removed. The bandage can easily be removed and reapplied when necessary. As the self-adhesive bandage sticks to itself, there is no need for additional tapes or pins to secure the bandage.

Use our Self-Adhesive Bandage as a versatile compression bandage as part of RICE therapy (rest, ice, compression and elevation) following a soft-tissue injury or as a secondary dressing to secure additional first aid dressings and bandages in place.

• Secures to itself without needing additional tapes or pins
• Adheres to itself, not the skin or hair
• Easy and painless to remove
• Leaves no glue or residue on the skin after removal
• Can be removed and reapplied
• The flexible and stretchy material can be used to provide compression and support to weak or injured joints
• Stretchy material allows you to choose the level of compression required

Application 

1. Unroll the required amount of bandage
2. Begin to unroll the bandage around the injured joint or affected area
3. To add compression, stretch the bandage as you unroll (take care not to apply too tightly and check for signs of constriction after application e.g. discolouration)
4. Keep unrolling the bandage until you have sufficiently supported the injury or secured dressings
5. The self-adhesive bandage will stick to itself by gently pressing on the bandage
