Sorbalgon®, a conformable, non-medicated dressing made of calcium alginate fibers which forms a hydrophilic non adherent gel in contact with the sodium salts contained in blood and wound exudate; the gel fills the wound cavity and creates a favorable healing condition, drawing bacteria from the wound and keeping them inside the gel.
Application / Indication:
May be used in the treatment of external wounds of any type; especially suitable for the treatment of bleeding or secreting wounds, since the gel-forming properties promote the wound healing process, e.g. venous leg ulcers, pressure sores, abscesses, furuncles, burns, difficult wounds following accident or tumor surgery.
