Biatain Alginate is a highly absorbent alginate dressing for moderately to heavily exuding wounds of any size, shape and depth. It has superior absorption for sloughy wounds and cavity filling
- Composition
- Alginate dressing consisting of 85% calcium alginate and 15% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC).
- Mode of Action
- On contact with wound exudate Biatain Alginate converts to a soft, cohesive gel that provides an optimal moist wound healing environment.
- The dressing will conform to the wound bed which is important for the wound healing process.
- Minimal risk of leakage and maceration
- The superior absorption of Biatain Alginate locks the exudate inside the dressing, preventing leakage that can damage the surrounding skin.
- Unique Dressing Integrity
- The design and the structural integrity of the dressing allow you to cut the dressing and make it fit to any size, shape or depth of a wound
- The unique dressing integrity allows for one-piece removal of the dressing
- Indication
- Biatain Alginate can be used on all moderate to heavily exuding wounds including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, donor sites and traumatic wounds.
- Caution
- Biatain Alginate should not be used on dry wounds or to control heavy bleeding.
