Smith & Nephew Bactigras

(10 cm x 10 cm, pack of 10) is a sterile, medicated Tulle-Gras dressing designed for wound care and infection prevention. It consists of a non-adherent cotton gauze impregnated with a paraffin base containing 0.5% Chlorhexidine Acetate, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial.

Core Composition

According to product details from 1mg and Truemeds:

Active Ingredient: 0.5% w/w Chlorhexidine Acetate BP, which provides antiseptic protection against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Base Material: Medical-grade cotton leno-weave fabric impregnated with white soft paraffin BP.
Physical Structure: The open-weave “Tulle” design allows wound fluid (exudate) to pass through easily into a secondary absorbent dressing

Key Benefits

Infection Prevention: Acts as a barrier against bacteria and is often used as an adjunct to systemic antibiotic therapy.
Non-Adherent: The paraffin base prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound bed, ensuring painless dressing changes and reducing trauma to new tissue.
Promotes Healing: Maintains a moist wound environment and is breathable, supporting optimal air circulation for recovery.
Low Trauma: Its flexible and soft texture conform to various wound shapes while remaining gentle on sensitive skin.

Common Uses

The dressing is clinically used for managing various minor and chronic wounds, including:

Minor Injuries: Cuts, abrasions, lacerations, and blisters.
Burns & Scalds: Protection for minor burns where there is a risk of infection.
Surgical Sites: Covering incisions and post-surgical wounds.
Chronic Wounds: Pressure sores, leg ulcers, and diabetic foot ulcers.
Skin Grafts: Donor and recipient graft sites.

Usage & Precautions

Application: Clean the wound with sterile saline before applying the dressing directly as a single layer.
Secondary Dressing: Must be covered with an absorbent pad (like gauze) and secured with tape or a bandage.
Change Frequency: Changes depend on the wound condition, ranging from daily to twice weekly; it can typically stay in place for up to 4 days.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C and protect from direct sunlight.
