Frequency of change
Depending on wound exudate levels, any surrounding interstitial fluid, oedema and dressing regime may require changing daily but may be left in place for up to 7 days. Will be less effective as the honey is diluted by wound exudate, to maintain an effective level change the dressing when the colour changes significantly.
Top tip: Algivon Plus has the capacity to absorb exudate so is ideal for use on wetter wounds.
