Sumo 0.25% Ointment 30gm

About The Product

Moist Exposed Burn Therapy (MEBT) was introduced into medical practice since two decades in China. The concept of this therapy is to expose the wound to a physiological moist environment to enhance natural healing processes, whereby keratinocytes migration, angiogenesis and interaction with growth factors are facilitated. SUMO™ (Moist Exposed Burn Ointment) is the ointment which has been developed to fulfill the above criteria.
SUMO is of natural and herbal edible origin. It is composed of ß-sitosterol 0.25 ٪ w/w as the main active ingredient. The base of the ointment is composed of sesame oil and beeswax. 

How to use? 

Burns

• First degree burns (Superficial burns)SUMO™ should be applied as immediately as possible. A thin layer (about 1mm thickness) should cover the burnt area. It is better to keep the wound exposed, but if there is a need, a light dressing can be used. Reapplication should be done 3 to 4 times daily if exposed or twice daily if closed.
• Second degree burn First Phase - liquefying period A thin layer of SUMO™ should cover the burnt area and be renewed 3 to 4 times daily. Before reapplication, the liquefied necrotic tissue and the residues of the old SUMO™ should be wiped off gently. It is better to keep the wound exposed, but if there is a need, a light dressing can be used and a relatively thicker layer (about 3mm thickness) should be applied and renewed twice daily. Second Phase - repair period sumo™ should be applied as before, but less frequently (2–3 times daily). Third Phase - rehabilitation period sumo™ should be applied as before, but only once daily.
• Third degree burns Sumo™ should be applied as mentioned before to liquefy the necrotic tissue. A thin layer should cover the burnt site and be renewed 3 to 4 times daily.
  Surgical and Obstetrical Wounds SUMO™ should cover the wound in a relatively thick layer (about 3mm) under a sterile dressing and be renewed twice daily.
