ActivHeal® Alginate Dressing
KSh 11,000.00
ActivHeal Alginate Dressing is a sterile, high-absorbent wound dressing designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. It is made from natural alginate fibres derived from seaweed, which transform into a soft, non-adherent gel upon contact with wound exudate. This gel maintains a moist environment conducive to wound healing while preventing the wound from drying out. The dressing is available in various sizes, including sheets and ropes, making it versatile for different wound types and sizes.

Why You'll Love It
- High Absorbency: ActivHeal Alginate Dressings can absorb up to 20 times their weight in exudate, effectively managing fluid and reducing the risk of maceration.
- Promotes Healing: The dressing maintains a moist wound environment, which is ideal for cellular migration and granulation tissue development, accelerating the healing process.
- Easy Removal: The gel-like consistency allows for easy removal without causing trauma to the wound bed.
- Versatile: Suitable for a wide range of wounds, including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, and cavity wounds.
Suggested Use
- Preparation: Cleanse the wound bed according to standard wound care protocols.
- Application: Choose a dressing size that covers the entire wound area. Place the dressing over the wound and secure it with a secondary dressing.
- Monitoring: Change the dressing as often as required based on the level of exudate and wound condition.
Caution
- Sterility: Do not reuse or re-sterilize the dressing.
- External Use Only: The dressing is for external use only.
