Algisite M Calcium Alginate Dressing

Algisite M is a fast-gelling calcium alginate dressing that forms a hydrophilic gel when in contact with exudate. Helps create and maintain a moist wound environment.

Benefits

• Helps prevent eschar formation and promotes wound contraction
• Allows gas exchange necessary for a healthy wound bed
• Low-adherence reduces trauma at dressing changes
• Conforms to wound contours
• Low fiber shed
• Easy to remove

Indications

Algisite M Calcium Alginate Dressing may be used for: lacerations, abrasions, skin tears, minor burns, diabetic, pressure or venous ulcers, and surgical wounds.

Contraindications

Contraindicated for use on lightly exuding wounds, wounds with packed cavities and sinuses (remove packing before application) or on individuals with a preexisting alginate allergy.
