3M™ NU-GEL™ hydrogel with alginate 6 x 25 g, 6 ST

Product information "3M™ NU-GEL™ hydrogel with alginate 6 x 25 g"
3M™ NU-GEL™ Hydrogel with Alginate is a hydroactive, amorphous and transparent gel containing sodium alginate. The hydrogel gently and effectively dissolves both fibrinous deposits and necrotic tissue.

The 3M™ NU-GEL™ hydrogel creates a moist wound healing environment. This promotes natural autolytic debridement, while the alginate component supports the absorption capacity. Due to the hydrating property of the gel, it can also be used to hydrate and soften scabs.

Easy to use

  • 3M™ NU-GEL™ Hydrogel can be applied to the wound using a simple one-handed technique. The bellows bottle allows easy application of the wound gel and minimises product loss.

Areas of application

  • 3M™ NU-GEL Hydrogel helps to create a moist wound healing environment and is suitable for debridement, eschar removal and the management of chronic wounds at all stages of the wound healing process.

Properties

  • Ampoule for easy application
  • The alginate component increases absorption capacity¹
  • Longer wearing time compared to other hydrogels¹

Application
  • Preparation of the wound. Clean the wound carefully by rinsing with sterile saline solution. Then remove the label from the accordion-shaped dispenser by pulling the tab according to the labelling. Wipe the tip under the cap with a suitable antiseptic compress and then remove the cap.
  • NU-GEL can be easily applied to the wound surface with one hand. To do this, hold the dispenser with one hand and apply NU-GEL to the wound by pressing the base of the packet with your thumb or the ball of your hand (similar to an injection).
  • The tip should not touch the wound surface. Apply NU-GEL to the wound in a thickness of at least 5 mm. Then cover the wound with a suitable secondary dressing according to the level of exudation. Unused gel should not be reused.
  • Less frequent dressing changes promote wound healing. When changing the dressing, you should clean the wound with sterile saline solution after removing the gel. Depending on the amount of exudate, the dressing can remain on the wound for up to three days. NU-GEL must be renewed if the secondary dressing becomes soaked.

Asa rule, the dressing should be changed after

  • dry necrosis after a maximum of 3 days,
  • soft necroses after 1-2 days and
  • fibrin deposits after 1-2 days.

As a result, NU-GEL Hydrogel with alginate enables reliable, economical cleansing of the wound from necrosis and fibrin deposits while at the same time promoting wound healing by creating a moist wound healing environment.
