Polyurethane film dressing is a thin, transparent film that adheres to the skin, creating a barrier to protect the wound from outside contaminants. It is highly breathable, allowing oxygen to reach the wound and promoting healing. The material is also waterproof, preventing moisture from entering the wound, which can lead to infection.
Alginate is a natural wound-healing substance derived from seaweed. It is highly absorbent, meaning it can effectively absorb excess fluids such as blood and pus from the wound. Alginate also helps to create a gel-like layer that promotes the growth of new tissue and minimizes scarring.
Non-adherent materials are used to prevent the dressing from sticking to the wound, which can cause pain and disrupt the healing process. By using non-adherent materials, the dressing can be removed easily and painlessly, reducing the risk of further damage to the wound.
Pharmaplast offers a revolutionary wound dressing called Pharma-Algi F IV Film, which combines polyurethane film dressing, alginate, and non-adherent materials to create an effective solution for wound care. This advanced dressing can be used for a variety of wounds, including pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and burns.
The Pharma-Algi F IV Film dressing is highly flexible, making it ideal for use in areas that require a greater range of motion, such as the elbows and knees. It is also highly adaptable, allowing it to conform to the contours of the wound for optimal coverage and protection.
Additionally, the dressing is highly cost-effective, as it can be left in place for up to seven days, eliminating the need for frequent dressing changes and reducing the overall cost of wound care.
In summary, polyurethane film dressing combined with alginate and non-adherent materials offer a high-quality solution for wound care.
