When you use a gelling fiber dressing, you should follow these four main steps.

• Start with a holistic wound assessment
• Use the gelling fiber dressing as the primary dressing
• Apply the secondary dressing as needed
• Assess the wound and dressing at each dressing change

By choosing the right gelling fiber dressing, you can reduce how often you have to change the dressing.³ So in this way, gelling fiber dressings create a better experience for your patients as well.
