Lyophilised medical grade bovine collagen particles to encourage wound healing and induce haemostasis. - 100% non-bleached, native undigested bovine collagen
- Medical grade type 1 collagen
- Facilitates moist wound healing and improves patient outcomes resulting in lowered costs and improved patient welfare (see 'How it works' below)
- Easy application and superior conformity to the wound
- 1g single-use sterile vial
- Sold singly,
- Bulk deal available
How to use: - For second intention healing on mix with Hydrogel at a ratio of 2:1 and apply the paste to wound to coverage of 6mm thick. Cover with a silicone foam dressing
- For haemostasis apply the powder directly onto the area
How it works: - Encourages wound healing through scaffold structure: unique biocompatible porous structure that provides excellent absorption and scaffolding for cell proliferation and migration, allowing fibroblasts to migrate across the wound bed and facilitating granulation, angiogenesis and tissue repair
- Induces haemostasis: in acute wounds, collagen rapidly activates platelets and coagulating factors to induce haemostasis
- Assists in reducing barriers to wound healing: Provides substrate collagen to divert matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) digestion from healing tissues and reduces inflammation that may slow or prevent healing
- Crosslinking process increases mechanical strength and moderates enzymatic digestion
- High exudate absorption and retention provides moist wound healing environment
