POLISEPT VET® AL
MECHANISM OF ACTION:
Calcium alginate has high absorption properties. When in contact with wound secretions, the calcium alginate fibres transform into a gentle gel which fills the wound bed. The resultant gel creates the ideal environment for the healing of the wound: optimal moisture level that improve granulation and epidermal processes, ensures thermal insulation, ensures mechanical isolation that protects the wound from outside infection while not interfering with gas exchange.
INDICATIONS:
Polisept Vet® AL is an absorbent dressing and can be used for both shallow and deep, penetrating wounds.
Wound exudate level: abundant or medium.
Is a direct sterile dressing, containing calcium alginate
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
- Rinse the wound with POLISEPT VET® IRRIGATION or POLISEPT VET® SPRAY
- Dry the skin around the wound, but lightly moisten the wound bed itself.
- Adjust the size of the dressing such that it covers the entire surface of the wound. Leave an additional 2 cm margin.
- Place POLISEPT VET® AL directly on the wound. In the case of deep wounds, they can be filled with an appropriately cut amount of dressing.
- Cover the alginate dressing with an additional external dressing (to be secured with either a bandage or plaster).
POLISEPT VET® AL should be used until wound secretions are minimal or stop altogether.
