The maintenance and care of medical adhesive sheets require attention to the following key points:
Cleaning: Immediately after use, wipe away any adhesive residue using physiological saline or an alcohol swab.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from light, at room temperature (15–25°C); avoid exposure to high temperatures or freezing.
Shelf Life: The unopened shelf life is 2–3 years; once opened, it is recommended to use the product within one month.
Pre-use Inspection: Ensure that the packaging is intact and that the adhesive material shows no signs of discoloration or separation.
Application Guidelines: Apply smoothly from the center outward to the edges, avoiding wrinkles or stretching of the tape. Do not use on broken, sensitive, or infected skin wounds.
Replacement and Removal: Periodically check for adhesion; replace promptly if it becomes loose. When removing, treat gently using warm water or a specialized adhesive remover; avoid tearing to prevent skin injury.
Rationale: Improper storage can compromise adhesive strength, while contamination or expiration may lead to skin irritation or allergic reactions.
