Braun Prontosan Debridement Pad is a Class I CE-marked medical device designed for soft mechanical debridement of chronic wounds. It utilises microfibre technology in a teardrop-shaped pad to gently remove slough, biofilm, debris, and dead cell residue from the wound bed and peri-wound skin. It is intended for use in combination with Prontosan Wound Irrigation Solution or Prontosan Wound Gel.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Prontosan Debridement Pad addresses a critical step in wound bed preparation: the removal of non-viable tissue, slough, and wound coatings that impede healing. Unlike sharp debridement techniques, the Prontosan Debridement Pad provides a controlled, low-trauma approach using densely packed microfibre filaments. These microfibres mechanically lift and trap wound debris while the pad's absorbent outer layer contains exudate, reducing the risk of cross-contamination during the procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad's innovative teardrop geometry features a broad rounded end for cleansing larger wound surfaces and a tapered pointed end for accessing wound undermining, tunnels, and irregular cavity margins. Each pad is individually blister-packed to maintain asepsis prior to use and is designed for single-patient, single-procedure application. The Prontosan Debridement Pad is used in hospitals, wound care clinics, and community nursing settings across Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold; width: 40%;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eB.

The Prontosan Debridement Pad uses engineered microfibre filaments that are significantly finer, enabling effective debris removal with reduced tissue trauma. Clinical evaluation data published in Wounds International demonstrates that the microfibre pad achieves more thorough slough removal compared to conventional gauze and cotton-based methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould the pad be used wet or dry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eB. Braun recommends soaking the Debridement Pad in Prontosan Wound Irrigation Solution for approximately 1-2 minutes before use. The Prontosan solution (containing polyhexanide 0.1% and undecylenamidopropyl betaine 0.1%) works synergistically with the microfibre pad to loosen biofilm and debris, enhancing the mechanical debridement action. The pad may also be used with Prontosan Wound Gel for targeted application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this pad suitable for use on acute wounds?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Prontosan Debridement Pad is primarily indicated for chronic wound management. For acute surgical or traumatic wounds, consult the treating clinician regarding the appropriateness of mechanical debridement. In cases where an acute wound develops necrotic tissue or biofilm (e.g., delayed healing), the pad may be appropriate as determined by wound assessment protocols aligned with the Singapore Wound Healing Society guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow often should debridement with this pad be performed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDebridement frequency depends on wound assessment findings, including the quantity and type of non-viable tissue present. The European Wound Management Association (EWMA) recommends reassessing the wound bed at each dressing change. Many clinicians incorporate debridement pad use at each scheduled dressing change (typically every 2-3 days) until a clean wound bed with viable granulation tissue is achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the pad be reused on the same patient?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Each Prontosan Debridement Pad is a single-use device. Reuse may compromise device integrity, reduce debridement efficacy, and increase the risk of wound infection. Dispose of used pads in clinical waste per your facility's infection control and waste management protocols compliant with the Singapore Environmental Public Health Act.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"What is B Braun Prontosan Debridement Pad used for?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"B Braun Prontosan Debridement Pad is a wound-care accessory supplied by EMIS+ (emis.asia) — used to clean or irrigate wounds, prepare or protect the surrounding skin, or secure dressings in place, depending on the product.
