Activheal Aquafiber Ribbon 15 x 15cm Pack of 5
ACTIVHEAL AQUAFIBER® IS A SOFT, CONFORMABLE, HIGHLY ABSORBENT DRESSING THAT CONVERTS TO A SOFT CLEAR GEL WHEN IN CONTACT WITH WOUND EXUDATE.
ActivHeal Aquafiber® is a uniquely designed dressing developed to provide you with all the benefits of an alginate dressing whilst also offering a high wet strength and clear gelling properties, to ensure a moist wound environment is maintained.
The reinforcement gives the dressing improved wet integrity providing the clinician with the confidence that the dressing can be removed intact. Calcium ions present within the alginate fibres of ActivHeal Aquafiber® exchange with sodium ions found in the wound exudate. The donation of calcium benefits the wound by stimulating cytokines which are essential to the wound healing process. Exudate is absorbed vertically into the ActivHeal Aquafiber® dressing reducing the risk of maceration and damage to the peri wound skin.
ActivHeal Aquafiber® is indicated for moderately to heavily exuding chronic and acute wounds and can act as a haemostat to control minor bleeding in superficial wounds2. The dressings may be used during the healing process on:
- Pressure ulcers
- Lacerations and abrasions
- Venous leg ulcers
- Post operative surgical wounds
- Diabetic ulcers
- Cavity wounds
- Superficial and partial thickness burns
