Askina® Calgitrol® Paste
Silver alginate wound paste
Askina® Calgitrol® Paste is a highly conformable paste composed of the same ionic silver alginate matrix used in the Askina® Calgitrol® Ag flat dressings. The high conformability allows a close contact between the active ionic silver alginate matrix and the wound bed, which is particularly valuable in difficult to manage wounds such as tunnels and sinuses, seen in patients with second degree burns and diabetic foot ulcers.
Advantages
- Highly conformable paste for intimate contact with the wound bed
- Maintains a moist wound environment
- Easy to remove by simple rinsing
- Can be stored and used for 7 days if the lid/cap is replaced after use
- Provides for broad antimicrobial affectiveness
- Long lasting antibacterial protection
Indication
For the management of:
- Partial to full thickness wounds
- Stage I - IV pressure ulcers
- Venous, arterial and neuropathic ulcers
- Second degree burns and donor sites
