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.\u003cbr\u003eWhen applied to a wound there will be an ion-exchange between the calcium in the dressing and sodium from the exudate, forming a soluble calcium\/sodium alginate gel. The free calcium ions in the wound will amplify the clotting cascade and can reduce bleeding.\u0026amp;nbsp;\u003cbr\u003eThe interaction with the wound exudates will create a protective gel that is nonadherent and creates a moist wound healing environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly absorbent.\u003cbr\u003eMaintains a moist environment.\u003cbr\u003eEasy application and removal\u003cbr\u003eExcellent wet strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl minor bleeding\u003cbr\u003eModerate to heavily exuding wounds\u003cbr\u003eCavity wounds\u003cbr\u003ePressure injuries\u003cbr\u003eLeg ulcers\u003cbr\u003ePost surgical wounds\u003cbr\u003eGraft and donor sites\u003cbr\u003eSkin tears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: large; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eTips for using:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean the wound with sterile water or saline solution.\u003cbr\u003eChoose the right size of dressing according to wound area.\u003cbr\u003eCut out dressing to size using sterile scissors.\u003cbr\u003eA secondary dressing is necessary when using calcium alginates.\u003cbr\u003eBefore removing this product during a dressing change, dampen dressing with sterile water or saline solution to lower the risk of damaging the surrounding skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"KIS","offers":[{"title":"5cm x 5cm (SMAD050050)","offer_id":45718891266283,"sku":"STM_SMAD050050_10","price":17.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10cm x 10cm (SMAD100100)","offer_id":45718891299051,"sku":"STM_SMAD100100_10","price":36.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/1427\/0699\/files\/KISAlginateDressing5cmx5cmBoxof10_2540SUT-AD050050_2540webp_2540610x610__64177.1677763797.1000.1200.png?v=1723266750","url":"https:\/\/medisa.com.au\/en-nz\/products\/wound-care-advanced-dressings-other-advanced-dressings-kis-alginate-dressing-regular-sheet-all-sizes","provider":"Medisa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
