• The design and cohesive structure of the plaster allow you to cut it to fit ulcers of any size, shape, and depth.
• Biatain Alginate Ag offers continuous antibacterial action throughout its application (up to 7 days).
• The high cohesion of the plaster allows it to be removed without leaving residues, minimizing pain and injury.
• The absorbency and gel formation that retains exudate prevent leakage that can cause damage from maceration of the surrounding skin.
• Unlike hydrofiber dressings, it has documented hemostatic action, meaning the ability to stop blood flow in minor bleeding. As the ulcer exudate is absorbed by the plaster, a soft, cohesive gel forms that adapts to the shape of the ulcer bed, providing better infection control.
• The silver complex releases ions when it comes into contact with the ulcer exudate.

• Can be used on all partial or full-thickness ulcers with moderate to high levels of exudate. 
• Can be used on ulcers with infection or at increased risk of developing infection. 
• Can be used in combination with compression bandaging. 
• Should not be used on dry or lightly exuding ulcers or for controlling heavy bleeding. 
• Indicated for foot ulcers, pressure ulcers (bedsores), diabetic foot ulcers, donor sites, wounds, and second-degree burns.

The Biatain Alginate Ag is an alginate dressing composed of calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and an ionic silver complex.
