WATER-JEL® HA First Responder Compresses, sterile - 10 cm, 10 cm

Article length: 10 cm | Article width: 10 cm

Effective cooling with gel technologyGel compresses for optimum first aid for burns and scalds. The heat is dissipated from the burn directly into the gel (heat transfer), which releases the excess heat into the surrounding air.The properties at a glance:Immediately ready for use - without prior coolingInterrupts further heat exposure - no further damage due to "afterburning"Transparent gel, clinically developed according to the latest formulaDoes not stick to the wound - no change in wound appearanceImmediately relieves pain, cools more gently than waterHigh-quality, tear-resistant compress materialSterile, bacteriostaticHyaluronic acid (HA) supports the skin's own regeneration functionEvery second counts for burns!Thanks to the unique convection process (heat transfer) , WATER-JEL HA First Responder compresses absorb temperatures of up to 1100 degrees Celsius in a very short time (human bones char at approx. 760 degrees). This heat transfer offers gentle temperature regulation of the wound region. As the heat at the wound decreases, cooling by WATER-JEL accelerates. This helps to reduce possible wound necrosis* and to reduce the depth of a burn. Hyaluronic acid (HA=Hyaluronic Acid)Hyaluronic acid is a gel-like, transparent liquid that is produced by the human body itself. It is an important component of connective tissue, cartilage and joint fluids. It adapts the inflammatory reactions in the body and accelerates wound closure. It also supports the restoration of skin elasticity. HA binds up to 1,000 times its own weight in water and thus ensures very effective hydration of the skin.

Burn Jel - cooling gel for burns, 3 x 4g

Burn Jel is a cooling gel that is used for burns, abrasions, sunburn and other skin irritations. The gel contains a combination of water, propylene glycol, carbomer and other ingredients. The gel is used as an initial treatment for minor burns to relieve pain and inflammation. It is important to note that for severe burns or burns that affect large areas of the body, medical attention should be sought immediately. Burn Jel can be used as a supplement to medical treatment in such cases. The gel is easy to use and can be applied directly to the affected area. However, the gel should not be applied to open wounds or deep cuts. Burn Jel is a helpful remedy to relieve pain and inflammation from minor burns. However, it should always be used in conjunction with appropriate medical treatment, especially for severe burns or burns that affect large areas of the body.

Fire blanket, asbestos-free (DIN EN 1869)

Extinguishing blankets according to DIN EN 1869 Fire blankets are particularly suitable extinguishing agents for small sources of fire in large kitchens, canteens, industrial operations or workshops. The blankets can be spread out quickly and easily thanks to their special folding. To protect your head and upper body, hold the fire blanket in front of you with your arms outstretched. Two integrated handle pockets protect the hands and enable quick removal from the extinguishing blanket container. Do not use to extinguish fires involving people Extinguishing fires involving people with fire blankets is no longer recommended, as it harbours additional dangers for burning people. Pressing on the blanket can cause additional burn injuries from flaming or glowing clothing. Extinguishing personal fires with a fire extinguisher is much safer and more effective.

What are the most common causes of burns?

The causes of burns can be divided into six categories:

dry-thermal: flames, radiant heat, open fire (explosion)
wet-thermal: scalding, hot liquids, vapour
liquid chemicals: acids, alkalis, solvents, etc.
dry chemicals: powder (e.g. cement, lime, etc.)
mechanical: friction
Radiation: sunburn, radioactivity, ionisation

How does the body react to burns?

When the human body is exposed to intense heat, this heat also penetrates the body tissue. The human body consists of 70 - 90 % water, which has the ability to circulate heat. The extreme heat is trapped in the tissue.

One of the most important functions of the human skin is to prevent heat loss. The body will try to get rid of the heat the same way it entered - back through the skin and in parallel via the bloodstream. The heat that the body does not release immediately begins to destroy the surrounding tissue.

Rules of Nines - Rule of Nines for burns

The Rule of Nines is a clinical rule of thumb for the orientating assessment of the severity of burns.
For an initial assessment of the measurement of the body surface area, the following classification helps:

Head: 9 %
Arms: 9 % each
Trunk front and back: 18 % each
Legs: 18 % each
Genital region: 1 %

A burn of the hand corresponds to a burn of 1 % of the total skin area. The burn of one arm corresponds to approx. 9 hands, i.e. 9 %.

The 4 basic measures for burns

Eliminate the cause of the burn (if still necessary)
1. Extinguish burning persons (extinguishers, WATER-JEL® blanket)
2. Move the affected person away from heat sources
Cool the burn (pain relief)
1. Immediate, localised cooling of the affected areas of skin provides immediate pain relief (e.g. with WATER-JEL® HA First Responder compresses)
2. Cooling prevents the heat already stored in the tissue from causing further damage
3. Avoid cooling large areas beyond the burn surface
4. By using WATER-JEL® products, you avoid cooling large areas. (risk of hypothermia)
Clean wound care
1. To prevent further contamination, cover the wound with sterile wound dressings
2. Possible adhesion of the wound dressing to the wound makes further clinical treatment difficult
  Note: WATER-JEL® HA First Responder products do not adhere to the burn wound
Preservation of the victim's body heat
1. Large cooling of the burn with water accelerates this process
2. Ensure that heat is maintained(woollen blanket, rescue blanket)

Frequently asked questions about burns

What are the different degrees of burns?
A distinction is made between first, second and third degree burns. First-degree burns usually have reddened skin or swelling. Second-degree burns are characterised by skin damage that affects the dermis. In addition to the first two layers of skin, third-degree burns also damage underlying layers of skin.

How are burns treated correctly?
The basic measures for treating burns are 1. Eliminating the cause of the burn 2. Cooling the burn (direct contact of the skin with ice should be avoided) 3. Clean wound care 4. Maintaining the victim's body heat.

Can a burn be cooled with water?
If the burn is cooled with cold water, there is a risk that the affected area or even the injured person will cool down, especially in the case of extensive burns. The core temperature of the affected person decreases as a result of the cooling. The body reacts with muscle tremors to produce heat.

What is the "Rule of Nine"?
The Rule of Nine is a clinical rule of thumb for assessing the severity of burns. For example, a burn to the hand corresponds to a burn of 1% of the total skin area. The burn of an arm corresponds to approx. 9 hands, i.e. 9 %.
