What is it?

3M Inadine (PVP-I) Non Adherent Dressing consists of a low adherent knitted viscose fabric impregnated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) base containing 10% Povidone Iodine; equivalent to 1.0% available iodine.

Reliable Inadine Dressing is a reliable, efficient and non-adherent dressing designed to help manage bacterial contamination and prevent infection in both chronic and acute wounds. Iodine is a highly effective topical antimicrobial that has been used clinically in the treatment of wounds for more than 170 years. It has a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity with efficacy against bacteria, microbacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses.

Efficient: The Povidone Iodine molecule has a broad spectrum antimicrobial action1,2 and has been proven to be effective against MRSA3-5.

Non-adherent Inadine Dressing minimises adherence to the wound bed, therefore reducing the risk of damage to the granulation tissue at dressing removal, and in clinical practice has been shown to reduce pain for patients.

How does it work? As PVP–I is released from 3M Inadine (PVP-I) Non Adherent Dressing, the dressing will change colour from orange to white. The colour change provides an indicator of how frequently dressings should be changed preventing unnecessary dressing changes, when compared to other dressings. This could improve cost effectiveness in treatment.

When to use it: 

Inadine Dressing is indicated to manage ulcerative wounds and may also be used for the prevention of infection in:

• Minor burns
• Minor traumatic skin loss injuries

Clinical studies suggest that Inadine Dressing may also be an appropriate dressing choice in the management of chronic wounds, including:

• Ulcers deriving from different aetiologies
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Pressure ulcers
• Inadine Dressing can be used as a primary dressing in combination with other dressings.
