Application instructions

Wound bed preparation:

Clean the wound with normal saline solution and perform sharp debridement with a sterile instrument (if slough is present).

Choosing the right size:

Measure the wound and choose appropriately sized AmchoPlast PHMB allograft.

Unpacking AmchoPlast PHMB:

Use sterile forceps to take out AmchoPlast PHMB from the inner foil pouch to avoid contamination.

Ensuring proper orientation:

To ensure appropriate orientation, check whether the embossed letters “LC” are displayed correctly when read from left to right.

Applying the membrane and hydration:

Apply AmchoPlast PHMB on the wound gently with sterile forceps and spread out the membrane to maximise the contact with the wound bed. Add a few drops of normal saline to hydrate the membrane.

External wound dressing:

A sterile non-adherent absorbent secondary dressing must be placed on top of the allograft to control bleeding and prevent contamination and secured with a bandage.

Allograft Re-application:

AmchoPlast PHMB can be applied every 48 hours until the wound heals

Any wound that fails to respond to treatment even after four weeks or remains unhealed entirely in two months is regarded as a chronic wound. A chronic wound is often found to be complicated because of underlying conditions like diabetes, circulation problems etc. due to the interruption of the body’s natural healing process. Some of the common chronic wound conditions include diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, surgical site injuries, burn injuries and pressure ulcers.
