Intended Use
The following conditions are considered appropriate for OTC use by the lay person: Coreleader AlgiPlaster is indicated for the management minor abrasions, minor cuts and minor lacerations. The following conditions are considered appropriate for Prescription Use under the supervision of a licensed healthcare provider: Coreleader AlgiPlaster is indicated as a primary dressing for the management of exuding wounds, including acute wounds such as abrasions, lacerations and post-surgical wounds.
Device Story
Coreleader AlgiPlaster is a sterile, non-woven topical wound dressing composed of calcium alginate fibers combined with a thin polyurethane membrane coated with acrylic adhesive. Used in clinics or home settings; applied by healthcare professionals or patients. Dressing acts as a barrier to external contamination while maintaining a moist wound environment by reducing water vapor loss. Upon contact with wound exudate containing sodium ions, fibers absorb fluid and swell; calcium ions are replaced by sodium ions, transforming the dressing into a gel-like consistency. This gel promotes a favorable environment for wound healing. The dressing is permeable to water vapor and oxygen but impermeable to microorganisms. It is intended for single use only.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Calcium alginate fiber, polyurethane membrane, acrylic adhesive. Principle: Wet-spinning production process for fibers; gelation via ion exchange (calcium/sodium). Form factor: Dense, flat non-woven pad. Sterilization: Gamma radiation (10^6 SAL). Connectivity: None.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of minor abrasions, cuts, and lacerations (OTC); management of exuding wounds including acute wounds like abrasions, lacerations, and post-surgical wounds (Prescription). Not for dry wounds or third-degree burns.

application to surface wounds. In the presence of exudate or other body fluids containing sodium ions, the fibers absorb liquid and swell. Calcium ions present in the fibers are partially replaced by sodium ions, causing the dressing to take on a gel-like consistency which may provide an environment favorable to the wound healing process.
