Biatain Alginate Ag is a highly absorbent silver alginate dressing for moderately to heavily exuding infected wounds of many sizes, shapes and depths.

Features

• Recommended for cavity filling for infected wounds: The design and structural integrity of the dressing allow you to cut the dressing to fit wounds of many sizes, shapes and depths.
• Patented wound dressing containing a silver complex with broad antimicrobial profile: Biatain Alginate Ag provides continuous antibacterial effect during the entire wear time (up to 7 days)
• High dressing integrity: The high dressing integrity allows for one-piece removal with minimal pain and trauma.
• Minimized 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 periwound skin.
• Documented hemostatic effect: Contrary to hydrofibre dressings, Biatain Alginate Ag has documented hemostatic effect, i.e. the 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 silver complex releases ions in the presence of wound exudate.
