Algivon Plus Ribbon

Texte en anglais

 

REINFORCED ALGINATE RIBBON IMPREGNATED WITH 100% MANUKA HONEY
 

Product Description

Algivon Plus has reinforced alginate fibres enabling a sustained, slow release of honey whilst maintaining the integrity of the dressing. Algivon Plus is an ideal choice for wetter wounds as the alginate has a small capacity to absorb, meaning the honey isn't washed away with exudate.

Use

Algivon Plus Ribbon is inserted into the wound site, cavity or sinus; ribbon can be cut to size ensuring that sharp scissors are used. Depending on the tissue type within the wound bed and level of exudate, your secondary dressing of choice could be a film dressing and/ or bandage. In wounds with a high level of exudate an additional highly absorbent dressing can be introduced to help manage exudate, we recommend Eclypse.

Store at room temperature. Due to the nature of honey, it can solidify at cold temperatures become more liquidized at warmer temperatures. If the product has hardened, warm between hands to soften before use. If the product has become too liquidized, place in a colder place such as a fridge for a few minutes.

 

Top tip

Algivon Plus Ribbon can be applied to wounds as well as packing where you may ordinarily have to cut down an Algivon Plus dressing, reducing wastage.

Indications

Algivon Plus Ribbon may be applied to any wound but especially:
Cavities, sinuses, pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, burns, graft sites, and infected wounds.

Contra-indications

Although the honey is not absorbed into the blood stream, we advise monitoring the blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. Do not use if allergic to bee venom. Discomfort can be experienced when honey is applied, depending on sensitivity of the wound it may be necessary to consider an appropriate level of analgesia. The initial discomfort usually subsides, however if it does continue, discontinue use and irrigate the wound with saline solution.
