Alginate Dressing

Description

Alginate Dressing is a sterile, highly comfortable, and absorbent primary wound care dressing used on moderately to heavily exuding wounds. The dressings are soft, conformable, and easy to apply in the cavity or irregular-shaped wounds.

Working Principle

• When the medical alginate dressing is in contact with the wound exudate, sodium alginate is formed through ion exchange, which can absorb a large amount of liquid, which is 5-7 times that of gauze.
• Sodium alginate absorbs water until it is saturated. After absorbing exudate, it expands and acts as a gel. The gel is conducive to creating a moist environment for wound healing, and can be completely peeled off without leaving fibers on the wound surface.

Application

1. Treatment of exudate and local hemostasis.
2. Moderate and severe exudates, and lacunar wounds such as
3. bedsores, bedsores, and bedsores.
4. Diabetic foot ulcer wounds, lower extremity venous or arterial ulcer wounds.
