Algipad CPlus is an advanced dressing and a complement to the Alginate Pad, designed for managing non‑infectious wounds and wounds that have entered the granulation and healing phase. This Revaheal dressing accelerates tissue reconstruction by creating a moist environment and controlling exudate.
It consists of three layers with distinct functions:
| Layer | Function |
| Outer semi‑porous layer | Provides adequate gas exchange and protects the wound bed |
| Absorbent layer | Manages and controls wound exudate |
| Collagen‑containing layer | Delivers continuous, gradual release of active collagen into the wound bed |
Suitable for:
- Acute and chronic wounds with high exudate
- Pressure (bed‑sores)
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Vascular wounds (venous/arterial)
- Surgical wounds
- Burns
Mechanism of Action
- Maintains structural integrity even when saturated
- Non‑adhesive to the wound bed, preventing damage to granulation tissue during dressing changes
- Stimulates re‑epithelialization and accelerates granulation tissue formation
- Reduces infection risk and controls exudate
Advantages
- Structural integrity is preserved even in saturated conditions
- Non‑adhesive to the wound bed, protecting granulation tissue during dressing changes
- Promotes re‑epithelialization and speeds granulation tissue formation
- Lowers infection risk and controls exudate
Treatment Recommendations
- For increased flexibility, wet the dressing surface with normal saline
- In highly exudative wounds, earlier dressing changes (every 2–3 days) are advised
- If needed, a secondary dressing such as Ravahil Pad can be used
How to Use
- Clean the wound bed of any contamination; for rinsing, Ravahil Sept spray can be used.
- Cut the CP Plus dressing to match the wound dimensions and apply it fully onto the wound bed.
- If exudate is low, wet the wound bed with normal saline.
- Apply Ravahil Pad over the wound.
Warning
- Not recommended for patients with severe allergies.
- For wounds with high infectious load, it is better to use AlgiPad first; once the wound improves and reaches the epithelialization phase, switch to this dressing.
