Alginate Dressing is a kind of high-tech mixed with alginate fiber which is refined from the natural seaweed plant and calcium ion through a special process.

Mechanism:

1. Excellence absorbency
2. There is gel on the surface of the wound to provide a moist environment which could speed up the healing process
3. Ca Na Could be Changed Ca activates prothrombin and accelerate the cruor
4. Protect nerve terminals and reduce the pain
5. Fiber could be bulgy after absorbing, and bacteria are locked inside fibers, therefore the dressing is bacteriostatic.

Application

1. All kinds of moderate and high exudate wounds
2. All kinds of acute and chronic wounds hemorrhagic wounds
3. All kinds of difficult healing wounds such Crura venous ulcer, bedsore, diabetes ulcer, post-operation wound of tumor and abscess
4. Donation wound
5. All kinds of lacuna, antrum wounds, such as nasal cavity, anus, and intestines;

Moisture absorption mechanism of cotton fiber and a gauze pad

Good absorbency and gelation capacity

Viscosity coefficient >800cp Ash<0.5%, fiber denier:1.5D-2.5D

Strength:1.5g/D  Elongation at break>10%

Water absorption≥10, bacteriostasis ratio >80%

1. It is a mixture of natural seaweed and Calcium ions, and it has good histocompatibility
2. The gel could be formed when the dressing meets exudates and blood, the skin then Could be protected, and would healing would be much faster.
3. The dressing could absorb lots of exudates quickly, and it is soft and comfortable for the skin.
4. The release of Calcium ions could activate prothrombin, and accelerate the cruor.
5. It will not stick to the wound, it will protect the nerve terminals, reduce pain, and easy to be peeled off from the skin.
6. Maceration of the skin around the wound will not occur.
7. It can be biologically degradable and environment-Friendly
8. It is soft and can be filled in the wound, and enhance the growth of the cavity.

1. It is not adaptable for dry wounds.
2. The wound should be cleaned and dried before being used.
3. Alginate calcium dressing should be 2cm bigger than the wound area to make sure that the dressing could be adherent to the skin completely
4. The Dressing should not be on the wound for more than one week.
5. When the exudates on the wound become less, it is suggested to stop using the dressing and change to another kind of dressing, such as hydrocolloid dressing.
6. When filling the combed top into the cavity, it should be started from the deep end and no space should be left or healing would be affected
