Pharma-Algi ® F Adhesive Film Frame Style: is Island dressing  made of non-adherent pad ( haemostatic and absorbent wound dressing, made of calcium alginate fibres, carded and needle punched to form a nonwoven absorbent felt) adhere to Polyurethane film substrate coated with pressure sensitive adhesive equipped with a frame delivery system for easy application.

1-Haemostatic effect: due to calcium – sodium ions exchange where calcium ions are donated to the wound which is vital factor for the clotting process.

2-High Absorption capacity: absorb wound exudates and locks it inside the formed gel so prevents skin maceration.

3-Moist wound environment: Upon contact with wound exudates, it rapidly gels which overlays the wound and provides a moist micro-environment that promotes healing and formation of granulation tissue.

4-Conformable and soft: conforms to wound contours.

5-Atraumatic Dressing removal: gel formation prevents adherence of the dressing to the newly formed tissues.

6-Unique Integrity: allowing removal of the dressing as one piece.

Pharma-Algi ® F Adhesive :are used as primary dressing to manage partial thickness wounds with moderate to highly exudates that have breached dermis which may also be prone to minor bleeding: • Cavity Wounds, chronic Wounds, leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, traumatic wounds, lacerations, abrasions and donor sites.

• Do not use on patients with a known allergy to alginates.
• Do not use on dry/low exudating wounds, as the absorption capacity may cause sticking to the wound or cause the wound to dry out and become painful.
• Do not use on Eyes, mucous membranes or tendons, due to the risk of dehydration.
• It is not intended to be used as a surgical sponge or to achieve haemostasis in heavily bleeding wounds.
• Do not use on infected wounds unless under medical supervision.

• For single use only. Reuse may cause cross contamination.
• Dispose as a contaminated product.
• Make sure the skin is clean, dry and free from soap residue and lotion to ensure good adhesion.
• Do not stretch the dressing during application as tension can cause skin trauma.
• If the dressing is not easily removed, moisten it with saline, and then remove.
