Biatain Alginate Ag should not be used on dry or lightly exuding wounds or to control heavy bleeding.Biatain Alginate Ag is a highly absorbent silver alginate dressing for moderately to heavily exuding wounds at-risk of infection Ideal for cavity filling for wounds at-risk of infection: The design and structural integrity of the dressing allow you to cut the dressing to fit to any size, shape or depth of a wound. The dressing conforms to the wound bed for optimal infection control Patented with a silver complex with broad antimicrobial profile: Biatain Alginate Ag provides continuous antimicrobial effect during the entire wear time (up to 7 days) Unique dressing integrity: The unique dressing integrity allows for one-piece removal Minimal risk of leakage and maceration: The absorption of Biatain Alginate Ag and the gel formation which locks exudate inside the gel prevent leakage that can cause maceration of the surrounding skin Documented haemostatic effect:Contrary to hydrofiber dressings, alginate dressings have documented haemostatic effect, i.e. ability to arrest blood flow in minor bleedings Mode of action: On contact with wound exudate Biatain Alginate Ag converts to a soft, cohesive gel that conforms closely to the wound bed for optimal infection control. The patented silver complex releases ions in the presence of wound exudate Product composition: Biatain Alginate Ag is an alginate dressing consisting of calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and an ionic silver complex.
