{"HowProductWorksDescription":"Mextra Superabsorbent is a superabsorbent dressing with a fluid-repellent nonwoven backing, a core consisting of superabsorbent particles and a nonwoven wound contact layer. Mextra Superabsorbent absorbs wound exudate through the wound contact layer, retains the exudate within the core and reduce the risk for maceration. The fluid-repellent nonwoven backing acts as a barrier and prevents exudate strike-through.

Mextra Superabsorbent can be used by lay persons under supervision of health care professionals. It can be used where high absorbency is required as a primary dressing directly on the wound or as a secondary dressing.

Mextra Superabsorbent can be used in conjunction with compression therapy for venous leg ulcers.
1. Cleanse the wound in accordance to clinical practice.
2. Select a dressing size so that the wound pad overlaps the wound with at least 2cm. Do not cut the product.
3. Apply Mextra Superabsorbent directly on the wound area, or as a secondary dressing over a dressing that transfers exudate. The product shall be placed with the white side of the product facing the wound and the blue back side facing up.
4. Secure the dressing e.g. with a suitable bandage or tape.

Mextra Superabsorbent should be changed according to the clinical condition of the wound, or before saturated. If the condition of the wound deteriorates, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Maximum wear time of each dressing is 7 days. Disposal should be handled according to local environmental procedures.","Warnings":"","InstructionsForUseDocs":[{"Culture":null,"Path":"Mextra Superabsorbent IFU UKCA
