CRITICAL STEPS TO TREAT A BURN: 1. Immediately stop the burning process-seconds count! 2. Cool the burn-don't over cool the victim. 3. Provide pain relief. 4. Cover and protect the burn area against contamination. COOLING BURNS THE RIGHT WAY Water-Jel Burn Dressings are a gelatinized water mix designed to perform the four critical steps for burn management in one application. Because of their gelatinous nature, they seal the burn from further contamination, they cool the burn site and relieve pain by heat transfer into themselves, and the fluids on the burn site cannot soak into the dressing nor can they evaporate through them. And finally, as the burn site cools down, the dressing warms up, leaving the site covered by a warm dressing, helping to prevent hypothermia. Water-Jel Burn Dressings will absorb temperatures in excess of 2000 degrees F-extremely important when you consider that human bone carbonizes at 1400 degrees F and other dressings could melt into the site. With Water-Jel, there is plenty of extra gel to use on any hyperemic or stasis sites surrounding the main burn, and the gel can be left on for more than four hours.
