Derma Sciences Algicell® Ag Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing, Sterile (by Integra)

Algicell Ag Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing absorbs moderate to large amounts of wound drainage and may help control minor bleeding. Alginate ropes can be used to fill or pack the dead space in a wound. A secondary dressing is needed to hold alginates in place and to protect the wound from outside contaminants. This popular dressing is designed to keep its form to allow for easy and trauma free removal, while still maintaining a moist wound environment, conducive to wound healing, through its ability to gel upon contact with wound fluids.

  • Contains 1.4% silver.
  • 7 day, broad spectrum antimicrobial strength.
  • Provides a strong barrier to bacterial penetration.
  • Protects against bacterial colonization.
  • Absorbs about 16% more exudate than the leading competitor.
  • Dressing's blend of mannuronic and guluronic alginic acids allow it to gel well and sustain its physical integrity.
  • Lowers the risk of tissue maceration and allows for more time between dressing changes.
  • Leaves no silver coated nylon thread residue upon removal.
  • Ideal for moderate to heavily exuding wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, leg ulcers, pressure ulcers/sores, donor sites, and traumatic and surgical wounds.
