Instructions to use DeRoyal Multidex Gel Maltodextrin Hydrophilic Dressing

Preparation of wound site for Multidex Gel

1. Necrotic tissue should be debrided according to acceptable practice or as directed by an attending physician.
2. The site should be irrigated liberally with a sterile physiological 0.9% normal saline or a balanced salts solution.

How to apply Multidex?

1. After irrigation, apply Multidex
   • For shallow wound: 1/4" thick over entire wound site
   • For deep wound: fill wound site to surface taking care to fill all undermined areas
2. Cover with a non-adherent, non-occlusive dressing such as Covaderm Plus, MultiPad, Sofsorb, or Polyderm Plus. If necessary, tape in place or use roll gauze or Stretch Net to secure dressing.
3. Dressing change should be once a day on minimally to moderately draining wounds and twice a day on heavily exudating wounds.

Multidex Hydrogel Removal

1. Remove non-adherent dressing with care. If dressing adheres to wound, soak with saline for several minutes before removing so the fragile granulation tissue is not disturbed.
2. Flush site liberally but gently with a sterile, physiological irrigating solution to remove debris. This will leave newly formed granulation tissue undisturbed.
3. Usual frequency of dressing change is once a day, depending upon drainage and the type of secondary dressing.
