Product Description
Benefits of UrgoTul:
- Supports a moist wound-healing environment.
- Atraumatic, non-adherent removal (helps protect newly formed tissue) and pain-free dressing changes.
- Highly conformable to irregular wounds and difficult anatomical areas; can be used for packing deep wounds (leave a visible tail for safe removal).
- Wear time: typically changed every 2–4 days depending on wound condition; may be left up to 7 days in certain protocols (e.g., under multilayer compression for venous leg ulcers). For epidermolysis bullosa, change every 1–3 days.
(Note: UrgoTul is a contact layer and generally requires an appropriate secondary dressing.)
When to use UrgoTul:
UrgoTul is indicated for acute wounds (e.g., burns, dermal abrasions, traumatic wounds, and postoperative wounds) and chronic wounds (e.g., pressure ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers) at the granulation and epithelialisation stages. It is also indicated for congenital epidermolysis bullosa wounds.
If you want to keep “leg ulcers” in the list, it’s best phrased as: “venous leg ulcers under compression, per local protocol” (since Urgo’s guidance explicitly mentions use under multilayer compression for venous leg ulcers).
