Calcium Alginate Dressing

DESCRIPTION

LUOFUCON Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing is a sterilized wound dressing contains Calcium Alginate fibers derived from seaweed. This wound dressing can absorb wound exudates and form a gel-like covering over the wound. The gel maintains a moist environment to accelerate wound healing. Meanwhile, the alginate gel will not adhere to wound during dressing changes, which avoids second damage.

Component:

Mainly calcium alginate fiber

Indications:

For moderately to heavily draining wounds, cavity wounds and acute wounds such as:
• Venous/arterial leg ulcer
• Diabetic ulcer
• Pressure sores.
• Donor sites.
• Abrasions, lacerations and post-surgical wounds.


Features:

Highly absorbent;
Maintain moist environment, Accelerate granulation of various wound
Easy application and removal;
Absorbent and conform to the shape of a wound;
Good air permeability, excellent biocompatibility.
Do not adhere to the wound
Activate thrombinogen and improve hemostasis.

Why gelatinous?

When in contact with wound exudates, the calcium ions in alginate fibers can exchange with sodium ions in wound exudates. During this process, the alginate dressing absorbs large amount of exudates and become gelatinous.
Notice: Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing shll not be used in dry wounds or wounds with minimal exudates, as it could dehydrate the wound site and delay wound healing.
