Kaltostat® Alginate Dressing

Kaltostat® Alginate dressing is an alginate dressing indicated as a primary dressing for moderately to highly exuding chronic and acute wounds, and for wounds with minor bleeding. On contact with exudates the dressing gradually forms a firm, moist gel which is highly absorbent.

 

Product Description
Exudate Management – For moderately to heavily exuding wounds
KALTOSTAT® dressing is an absorbent, calcium sodium alginate (80% Ca and 20% Na) with a high Guluronic acid content. When in contact with wound exudate, calcium ions in the dressing exchange with sodium ions in the exudate causing the dressing to transform from a dry, fibrous
state to a firm, moist gel. The dressing provides a moist environment helping to create optimal wound healing conditions and maintains its integrity allowing for easy, atraumatic removal
KALTOSTAT® dressing is also designed to promote haemostasis, providing a matrix to support blood clot formation.
 
 
Clinical Benefits
  • Supports moist wound healing environment
  • Non-adherent to wound surface allowing for easy, non-traumatic removal
  • Longer wear time than conventional dressings, therefore cost-effective
