Alginate dressing is a high-tech medical functional dressing made of alginate fibers extracted from natural seaweed plants and calcium ions through special processing. It has good biocompatibility, absorbability and wet healing properties. Its main ingredients are sodium alginate or calcium alginate, which forms a soft gel when it encounters wound exudate, providing an ideal moist environment to promote autolytic debridement and granulation tissue growth.
Due to its unique high hygroscopicity, hemostasis, antibacterial and adhesion reduction properties, alginate dressings are widely used in the care of various chronic wounds such as pressure sores, diabetic foot ulcers, and various postoperative wounds, skin donor sites, burns and traumatic wounds. Due to its high efficiency and safety, it has become an important choice for modern wound management.

Main Function Principles
Excellent hygroscopicity.
Gel formed on the wounds to keep the wound moist and promotethe healing of the wound.
lon exchange between Ca+and Na+,Ca+ for activating prothrombinto promote coagulation.
Protect nerve endings and relieve wound pain.
Hygroscopic swelling behavior of the fiber. Bacteria are fixedbetween fibers,so they have bacteriostasis function.

The natural seaweed extracts the mixture of fiber andcalcium ion,and the product has excellent biocompatibility
Gel is formed after contacting with wound exudate andbleeding to protect wounds and keep wounds moist to promotewounds healing.
The product can rapidly absorba large amount of exudate,and has soft texture and good compliance.¥ The release of calcium ions in dressing can activateprothrombin,accelerate hemostasis process and promotecoagulation.
The product does not adhere to the wound,protects nerveendings to relieve pain,and is easy to remove from the woundwithout retained foreign body.
The product does not cause maceration of skin around thewound.
The product can be biodegradable and enviroment-friendly¥ The product is soft and can fill the wound cavity andpromotes the growth of the covity.

Directions
After debridement, select an alginate dressing of appropriate size
Apply either side of the alginate dressing directly to the wound
If necessary, secure the dressing with an appropriate second dressing (e.g. PU film dressing)

Indications
All kinds of medium and high exudative wounds
All kinds of acute and chronic bleeding wounds
All kinds of refractory wounds such as lower limb ulcer, bedsore, diabetic foot, wound after tumor operation.abscess, etc
Wounds of skin danor site
The filling alginate rope is used for various covity wounds, such as wounds left after nasal covity surgery,sinus tract wounds,wounds left after tooth extraction,etc
