Description

Algisite M is a calcium-alginate dressing which forms a soft, integral gel when it comes into contact with wound exudate. Excess wound exudate is absorbed in this process. Algisite M utilises the proven benefits of moist wound healing, which results in faster healing of even difficult wounds.

• Fast gelling, high mannuronic acid fibres.
• Minimal fibre shed construction.
• High integrity when wet.
• Soft and conformable
• Easy to remove
• Conforms to wound contours
• Minimal fibre shed
• Moist wound environment
• Highly absorbent

Contraindication

• Ensure the packing in cavities, sinuses etc. has been removed.
• The dressing may adhere if used on very lightly exuding wounds. If the dressing is not easily removed, moisten it with saline, then remove.
• Do not use on patients with a known allergy to calcium alginate.
