Stratamed adapts to all kinds of wound surfaces and forms a protective, flexible film over the wound

Why is Stratamed an innovative product?

Stratamed protects the compromised skin from microbial and chemical invasion, making it an alternative to topical antibiotics for wound protection against infections.³

FILM-FORMING, FLEXIBLE, FULL CONTACT

Stratamed is a flexible, full contact wound dressing that forms a thin film and ensures constant contact with the skin.

FASTER WOUND HEALING AND REDUCED DOWNTIME

Stratamed promotes a moist healing environment, leading to faster healing and reduced downtime.

ABNORMAL SCAR PREVENTION

Stratamed allows the prevention of abnormal scarring to begin immediately post-procedure (before suture removal).

HYDRATION AND GAS PERMEABILITY

Stratamed is semi-occlusive, which allows the skin to breathe and remain hydrated.

SYMPTOMATIC RELIEF

Stratamed provides symptomatic relief from itching, burning sensation and discomfort, reduces redness and discoloration.

PROTECTION

Stratamed protects the compromised skin from chemical and microbial invasion, while reducing the risk for contact dermatitis.

SECONDARY DRESSINGS

Stratamed can be used with or without a secondary protective dressing, in combination with other wound care therapies and topical agents.

HARD TO TREAT AREAS

Stratamed is inert, has no measurable pH, contains no alcohol, parabens or fragrances, making it suitable for children, people with sensitive skin, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers.

NON-REACTIVE

Stratamed is suitable for exposed areas like the face and neck as well as joints and hairy areas without the need for shaving.

EASY TO USE

Stratamed is easy to apply without the need for removal before re-application and can be used by patients at home.

Stratamed intended use

Stratamed is an advanced flexible, film-forming wound dressing for the use immediately following medical and aesthetic procedures, on acute or chronic wounds and compromised skin surfaces.

Stratamed has been developed with a special consistency to ensure it remains in full contact with the wound bed or damaged surface.

How Stratamed works (Mode of Action):

A very thin layer of exudate is maintained in the interstitial space between the wound surface and the film created by Stratamed.

Due to the semi-occlusive properties of Stratamed the wound is still able to breath avoiding maceration. The production of exudate is normalized as we are not absorbing it.

Faster re-epithelialization of the wound bed

Reduction of inflammatory response

Abnormal scar prevention

Stratamed Application

Ensure first that the affected skin or wound is clean and gently pat dry as much excess exudate or wound fluid from the area as possible prior to gel application.

On damaged or broken skin not requiring a secondary dressing:

Apply a very thin layer of Stratamed to the affected area and allow the gel to dry.
When applied correctly to the affected areas, Stratamed should be dry in 5–6 minutes. If it takes longer to dry you have probably applied too much. Gently remove the excess with a clean tissue or gauze and allow the drying process to continue.
Stratamed should be applied once daily, or twice daily to exposed areas or as advised by the physician.
Once dry, Stratamed may be covered by sunscreen, cosmetics, pressure garments or casts.

On damaged skin or wounds requiring a secondary dressing:

> Stratamed is recommended for immediate treatment post-procedure and should be continued until the skin has fully
recovered.

> For resurfacing and ablative procedures, continued use is recommended for a minimum treatment of 30 days or until no further improvement is seen.

For best results

For best results, Stratamed should be maintained in continuous contact with the skin.
Stratamed may be re-applied more often to ensure constant contact with the skin, or to reduce symptoms.
Washing will likely remove Stratamed. If Stratamed has been removed by washing, it should be re-applied.
Stratamed can be applied directly to the wound using the finger, cutton bud, etc.
Stratamed does not need to be rubbed in or massaged, as it does not penetrate below the level of stratum corneum and will not enhance its effect.
Applying Stratamed on the wound edges will help prevent maceration.
Stratamed should not be applied over topical medications unless advised by the physician
