CALCIUM ALGINATE DRESSING WITH SILVER

AlgiHeal AG™ Dressing is a calcium alginate dressing infused with silver ions, engineered to absorb wound exudate, support moisture balance, and inhibit bacterial growth in chronic and acute wounds.

Key Features:

  • Silver Alginate Technology: Combines calcium alginate and silver ions to manage exudate and help reduce bacterial growth and infection risk.
  • Highly Absorbent:  Rapidly absorbs moderate to heavy wound exudate and forms a soft gel layer that helps maintain an optimal moist wound-healing environment.
  • Non-Adherent: The gel surface prevents sticking to the wound bed, ensuring painless removal.
  • Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Protection: Demonstrated antimicrobial efficacy against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria

Mechanism of Action:

Upon contact with wound fluid, AlgiHeal AG™ transforms into a soft gel that conforms to the wound bed and helps maintain a moist environment conducive to healing. The dressing absorbs excess exudate while the silver ions provide sustained antimicrobial activity, helping control bacterial burden and support the wound-healing process.

Indications:

AlgiHeal AG™ Alginate Dressing is intended for the management of wounds, including:

  • Traumatic wounds
  • Pressure ulcers
  • Diabetic wounds
  • Leg ulcers
  • Graft and donor sites
  • Post-operative surgical wounds

Contraindications:

  • Patients with known sensitivity or allergy to silver
  • Not intended for use on third degree burns

Instructions for Use:

1. Clean the wound area as per standard medical procedures.

2. Select the appropriate size of the dressing to cover the wound adequately.

3. Remove the protective backing from the dressing.
4. Apply the dressing to the wound, ensuring full contact with the wound bed.
5. Secure the dressing in place, ensuring it adheres well to the surrounding skin.
