WHAT IS ALTRAZEAL?

A Scientifically Engineered Dressing That Fits

Altrazeal® is a patented powder dressing specially engineered to cover and protect the wound and to provide an ideal moist wound healing environment that supports cellular function and tissue repair. Its non-resorbable, sterile granules aggregate when hydrated with saline to form a moist, flexible, oxygen permeable film that fits and seals the wound.

The skin-like barrier serves many functions that promote healthy granulation tissue growth:

  • Seals and protects the entire wound surface
  • Allows oxygen transportation
  • Manages exudate through vapor transpiration
  • Prevents penetration of exogenous bacteria*

Altrazeal® enables extended wear time of up to 30 days, allowing the wound to heal without disturbing the wound bed with frequent dressing changes. It is particularly helpful in the management of complex, painful, and difficult-to-dress wounds.

Mechanism of Action: Transforming Powder

  • Clean wound with saline, pour granules to cover moistened wound bed. Hydrate with saline if needed
  • Oxygen-permeable granules absorb moisture to form a moist skin-like matrix that allows excess exudate to flow via vapor transpiration.
  • The matrix contours to the wound bed. Simple non-adherent dressings may be used in areas of more friction or exudation
  • The matrix forms a moist, non-occlusive barrier to help prevent the entry of bacteria
  • More powder may be added as needed. Dressing dries and flakes off as the wound heals.

APPLICATION GUIDE

  • Step 1: Clean wound, moisten with saline and pour powder to cover the entire wound bed and margins.
  • Step 2: Powder transforms on hydration into a matrix that allows oxygen and exudate flow but prevents bacterial penetration
  • Step 3: Secure with simple secondary dressings if required. Change secondary dressing when wet or soiled. Add powder as needed.
  • Step 4: Visible margins enable inspection without requiring primary dressing changes.
  • Step 5: Dressing dries and flakes off as wound heals.
  • Step 6 (Removal if Necessary): Submerge in saline and easily lift off dressing

USES OF ALTRAZEAL

SURGICAL WOUNDS:

  • Operative Incisions / Wounds*
  • Dermatological Excisions
  • Dehisced Wounds
  • Skin Graft Recipient and Donor Sites​​

TRAUMATIC WOUNDS:

  • Burns
  • Abrasions / Avulsions / Lacerations / Skin Tears

CHRONIC WOUNDS:

  • Diabetic Foot Ulcers
  • Vascular Ulcers
  • Pressure Ulcers
  • Wounds in Immunologically Compromised Patients

BENEFITS OF ALTRAZEAL

Altrazeal has been designed to deliver a unique blend of properties that optimize the wound bed environment to promote superior healing:

ALTRAZEAL PROPERTIES:

  • Provides an ideal moist wound environment that supports cellular function and tissue repair
  • Absorbs ~68% water of its hydrated mass*
  • Comfortable for the patient. Significantly improved patient comfort was evidenced in patients with split thickness skin graft donor sites**. Flexible dressing contours to the wound bed. Wound margin visibility and extended wear time enables wound inspection without necessarily inducing a dressing change
  • Fits, covers and protects the entire wound surface
  • Oxygen-permeable material
  • Does not require peripheral or secondary adhesives to remain in place. Powder aggregates and forms a matrix that seals the wound bed upon hydration with exudate or saline. It covers the wound bed but does not affect the intact skin around the wound
  • Easily removed by saturating the dressing with saline and lifting it up with a pair of forceps
  • Facilitates exudate management which is vital to reducing the risk of peri-wound maceration
  • Prevents exogenous bacteria from entering the wound*
  • Easy application and removal
  • Extended wear time enables reduced dressing changes and nursing interventions

EVIDENCE

Efficiency and Outcomes: Transforming Expectations

Healthcare professionals are achieving remarkable results with Altrazeal, especially in complex, painful, and difficult to dress wounds.

Several patients have appreciated its added comfort, extended wear time of up to 30 days, and ease of application.
