WOUND COVERING COMPRISING OCTENIDINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE FOR USE IN THE ANTISEPSIS OF CATHETER INSERTION POINTS

摘要

A wound covering includes a) a transparent film and b) applied to the film, a transparent hydrogel which includes octenidine dihydrochloride. The wound covering is suitable in particular for use in the antisepsis of catheter insertion points. The active ingredient octenidine dihydrochloride is released from the hydrogel quickly, but in a long-lasting manner. A wound covering set and a hydrogel including octenidine dihydrochloride for use for the antisepsis of catheter insertion points are also described.
