ColActive ® Plus Collagen Matrix Dressing – 4” x 4” (10cm x 10cm) Box/10

ColActive® Plus is an advanced wound dressing made from collagen, sodium alginate, carboxylmethylcellulose (CMC), and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). ColActive® Plus is a topically applied wound dressing that will transform into a soft gel sheet when in contact with wound exudates. The dressing maintains a moist wound environment that aids in the formation of granulation tissue and epithelialization. The EDTA in the dressing removes zinc to inhibit the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), thus creating a suitable environment for wound healing. ColActive® Plus dressings may be trimmed and layered for the management of deep wound.

When to use:

ColActive® Plus is indicated for management of full and partial thickness wounds including: pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, ulcers caused by mixed vascular aetiologies, venous ulcers, donor and graft sites, abrasions, traumatic wounds healing by secondary intention, dehisced surgical wounds, first and secondary degree burns.

When not to use:

ColActive® Plus dressing should not be used on patients with a known allergy or sensitivity to animal derived collagen, any other ingredient or on third degree burns.
