Coalgan adhesive bandages are indicated for treating injuries caused during everyday activities.
These dressings are used for superficial injuries (cuts, open blisters, small wounds). They are suitable for children, adults, and pregnant women, and are recommended for patients with congenital (Rendu-Osler, von Willebrand, hemophilia) or acquired (patients on antiplatelet drugs, vitamin K antagonists, or heparins) hemostasis disorders.
They are bioactive, sterile, and made of sodium alginate. It is alginic acid, with its healing properties, derived from brown seaweed, that gives these dressings their hemostatic and healing benefits. They promote the release of calcium, which boosts platelet aggregation and facilitates healing. The alginate fibers gel upon contact with secretions, trapping bacteria and preventing microbial contamination.
Once in contact with the wound, these dressings will quickly stop the bleeding, promote healing while soothing the feeling of pain.
Two sizes are available to best match the size of the wound.
