How often does dressing need changing.
576174
Change the first dressing after 2-3 days. Then watch the slough on the wound. If it covers more that 20% of the wound - keep changing every 2-3 days. Normally, for average sloughy wounds the process of slough removal takes around 2 weeks. Once the wound becomes 80% free of slough - gradually reduce the change frequency for up to 5-7 day wear time depending on drainage level. Dressing needs to be changed when the exudate reaches the dressing edge, please see picture: http://www.enluxtrawoundcare.com/uploads/7/3/6/7/7367632/2184182.png?293For more information and additional questions, please go to: www.AnyWound.com/how-to-useThank you for your question and happy healing!

I was not able to use these dressings. They caused an irritation. I used one for 1/2 a day. I had tried it on my leg after radiation it was an opened wound. I had great hopes but could not use it. I had bought a box of 10 which was quite expensive so I would suggest sending for 1 sample first. JoAnne H

That depends on the amount of drainage. See directions on what they suggest for changing. In my husband's case, his wound drains so much that we change every day.

Wounds and their dressings vary. If you are@ under a doctor's care, consult him. Could be as much as daily or more often, or possibly after several days .

I just recently purchased the brush, so I haven't had to change it yet. They recommend changing it every three months.

I change it every year. You might want to check with Multipure to see if there are any negative outcomes with changing it that often.

I think every 30 days is what is recommended; however, I change them every three months throughout the year.

Do you mean weight wise? I don't know how much in weight, but For me It holds about about 6 days worth of dirty clothes for one person, so for me that would be a change of bottoms (slacks), tops (sweaters), and undies for 6 days from Mon-Saturday and then it's almost to the top. If you're using it for more than one person it would fill up in a few days, especially for thicker clothing like sweats and thick sweaters and jackets

Will not happen if you change the diaper a few times a day. We change it after a walk, before bed and in the morning. A quick wipe once a day with a Wet One (or similar) also helps keep fresh.

It depends on the weatherThe hotter it gets the more often it needs to be changedWhen it is in the 70 and 80 30 days is just fine but when it gets above 90 for a extended time change every 15 to 20 days.

I would say 18 is a minimum, 24 super confortable to wash every other day:)(provided you have only prefolds and a dryer or a warm windy sunny climate if you hang them to dry :))

I change mine about every 6 months, but I only use it at work. It doesn't get everyday or all day use.

I have to change them about every 2 weeks. One of of my dogs is a husky mix and the other is a lab. I also have 3 kids.

Of course depending on how often you go by it, I've had to change them about every 8 weeks so far.

When I first used them I changed them at 90 days. But over time I noticed that they were not that dirty after 90 & I have left them in longer. I change them three times a year now.

Yes but if they havent changed it in the last 5 or 6 yrs id look for something else. This stuff wears off to quickly.

I change mine the first of every month. Didn't keep track one month and "stuff" grew inside. Really difficult to get rid of it.

We change ours once a year. Not sure if that is what is recommended though...

It depends on how often you change diapers, I usually change it every week.

according to use, we use ours often so we change bout every 2 months, but it no hassle. Listen when we are on vacation or a business trip, we look at each other and say "I will be so glad to get home to my bathroom". The best part of my $15,000 bathroom remodel. Dont hesitate BUY IT!
