Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing for Post-operative, Cavity, Graft, Heavily Exuding Wounds, Ulcers, Lacerations, Abrasions, Donor Sites
DETAILS
Material
- Alginate fiber
- Silver ions
Main Mechanism
- Silver alginate dressings release silver ions upon contact with wound exudate. The more exudate there is, the greater the release of silver ions.
- Silver ions bind to enzyme proteins in bacterial cells, rendering them inactive and killing the cells.
- The silver ions in the dressing bind with metal proteins in the wound, increasing the concentration of ions such as zinc, calcium, and copper, which promotes wound healing.
- Silver ions bind to the DNA and RNA of bacterial cells, viruses, and other pathogens, preventing them from replicating.
Key Features
- High absorption capacity
- Broad spectrum antimicrobial effect
- Haemostatic effect
- Promotes healing through a moist wound environment
- Comfortable and soft, painless removal
Cautions
- Clean the wound with saline and dry the surrounding skin before use.
- Do not soak the silver ion dressing in saline before use.
- A secondary dressing, such as silicone foam dressing or Island dressing, should be used in combination.
- Based on clinical use, it is recommended to change the dressing every 2-4 days.
- It should not be applied to dry wounds or wounds with exposed bones, muscles, tendons, or fascia.
Discover the Power of Silver Alginate Dressings!
Silver ion alginate calcium dressings combine the powerful antibacterial properties of silver ions with the exceptional moisture-absorbing capabilities of alginate, creating a superior wound care solution.
Antibacterial Action: The silver ions embedded in the dressing actively combat bacteria, significantly reducing the risk of infection. This ensures a cleaner wound environment, which is crucial for optimal healing.
Moisture Management: Made from natural alginate, these dressings boast impressive fluid absorption. They quickly absorb exudate, maintaining a moist wound environment that promotes healing while preventing maceration of surrounding skin.
In summary, silver ion alginate calcium dressings offer a potent blend of antibacterial protection and high absorbency, making them an ideal choice for effective wound management. Choose this innovative dressing for enhanced healing and peace of mind.

Clean
Clean the wound and dry the surrounding skin gently.
Cut
According to the size of the wound, cut it to the appropriate size.

You asked, we answered.
How often should silver alginate dressings be changed?
Silver dressings can continue to kill bacteria for up to 7 days.
However, we recommend changing them every 2-4 days to achieve better results.
You can also use them according to your doctor's advice.
How do I choose the right size?
Silver alginate dressing should be 2cm/0.5in bigger than the wound area to make sure that dressing could cover skin completely.
