Coloplast Biatain Alginate Ag Dressing Features

  • Ideal for cavity filling for wounds at-risk of infection: The design and structural integrity of the dressing allow user to cut the dressing to fit to any size, shape or depth of a wound. The dressing conforms to the wound bed for optimal infection control. 
  • Patented with a silver complex with broad antimicrobial profile Biatain Alginate Ag provides continuous antimicrobial effect during the entire wear time (up to 7 days). 
  • Unique dressing integrity: The unique dressing integrity allows for one-piece removal. 
  • Minimal risk of leakage and maceration: The absorption of Biatain Alginate Ag and the gel formation which locks exudate inside the gel prevent leakage that can cause maceration of the surrounding skin. 
  • Documented haemostatic effect: Contrary to hydrofiber dressings, alginate dressings have documented haemostatic effect, i.e. ability to arrest blood flow in minor bleedings.

How Coloplast Biatain Ag Dressing Works?

On contact with wound exudate Biatain Alginate Ag converts to a soft, cohesive gel that conforms closely to the wound bed for optimal infection control. The patented silver complex releases ions in the presence of wound exudate.

  5. If the wound is low exuding Biatain Ag foam dressings may be moistened with sterile saline solution before placing on the wound.
  6. Biatain Ag non-adhesive dressings must be secured with a secondary dressing or compression bandage.
  7. Biatain Ag foam dressings should be changed when clinically indicated or when visible signs of exudate approach the edge of the dressing.
  8. For use of silver containing products beyond 30 days a clinical assessment by a healthcare professional is recommended.

Frequency of Change:
  • May be left in place up to 7 days depending on the amount of exudate, dressing condition and type of wound
