Frequently Asked Questions
What is AllaQuix® Basic Island Dressing?
AllaQuix® Basic is a non-woven adhesive island dressing that combines a soft, absorbent gauze pad with a surrounding adhesive border. It provides a sterile barrier to protect minor wounds, lacerations, and surgical sites while supporting optimal wound healing.
How do you apply an adhesive island dressing?
Clean the wound thoroughly. Peel away the protective backing, apply the gauze pad directly over the wound, and press the adhesive border firmly onto the surrounding skin. Replace as needed or when the dressing becomes saturated or loose.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. AllaQuix® Basic is made with a gentle, hypoallergenic adhesive that is safe for sensitive skin and designed to minimize irritation during wear and removal.
What are the recommended uses?
This dressing is ideal for:
- Minor cuts and lacerations
- Post-surgical incisions
- IV catheter insertion sites
- Light to moderate draining wounds
- Protective coverage for medical devices or secondary dressings
Are there any precautions I should follow?
Yes. For external use only. Do not use on visibly infected wounds or if the sterile packaging is damaged. Seek medical advice for deep, persistent, or serious wounds.
What sizes are available for AllaQuix® Basic?
AllaQuix® Basic comes in three convenient sizes:
- 4x4 inch dressing (2x2" absorbent pad)
- 4x8 inch dressing (2x6" absorbent pad)
- 4x14 inch dressing (2x12" absorbent pad)
Each includes a 1-inch adhesive border around the gauze pad.
Can AllaQuix® Basic Island Dressings be used on children?
Yes, the dressings are safe and effective for all age groups, including children.
How often should the dressing be changed?
We recommend changing the dressing once daily or sooner if it becomes wet, dirty, or loose, to maintain a clean and healing wound environment.
Is the dressing waterproof?
The adhesive border is moisture-resistant, but the dressing is not fully waterproof. Keep the area protected from excessive moisture and water exposure when bathing.
Can the dressing be cut to fit a smaller area?
No. Cutting the dressing is not recommended as it may compromise sterility and reduce the effectiveness of the adhesive seal.
Is AllaQuix® Basic latex-free?
Yes. AllaQuix® Basic is 100% latex-free, making it safe for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities.
