Johnson & Johnson TIELLE Hydropolymer Adhesive Dressings

Product Description
TIELLE Adhesive Dressing provides an exudate handling system for low to moderately exuding wounds. It is a highly absorbent dressing. The absorbent material is a synthetic polymer. The island dressing maintains a moist environment that aids in the wound healing process and allows granulation to proceed under optimum conditions. During use, the absorbent island gently expands as it takes up exudate. It allows the wound to remain moist, thus encouraging autolytic debridement, which may initially increase lesion size. This is normal and to be expected prior to wound granulation. 

Indications
TIELLE Adhesive Dressing is indicated for the management of low to moderately exuding wounds. 

TIELLE Adhesive Dressing should be used under health care professional direction for the following indications:

• Pressure ulcers
• Lower extremity ulcers
• Venous ulcers
• Arterial ulcers
• Mixed etiology ulcers
• Diabetic ulcers
• Donor sites

TIELLE Adhesive Dressing is suitable for use under compression bandaging.

Precautions
TIELLE Adhesive Dressing is not indicated for use on the following:

• Third-degree burns
• Lesions with active vasculitis, as this type of ulcer needs more frequent observations by a healthcare professional.

TIELLE Adhesive Dressing may be used when visible signs of infection are present in the wound area, only when proper medical treatment addresses the underlying cause.
