Aiutare a prevenire e trattare le ulcere del piede diabetico

Sindrome del piede diabetico (DFS)[1,2]

La sindrome del piede diabetico (DFS) è una complicanza comune del diabete mellito che colpisce un quarto dei pazienti affetti da diabete in un certo momento della loro vita. Il rischio di sviluppare DFS aumenta con il passare del tempo.

 

Una delle conseguenze è la lesione cutanea o l'ulcerazione del piede, nota come ulcera del piede diabetico (DFU). Questa condizione comprende tutte le alterazioni del piede derivanti dalla polineuropatia diabetica, nonché le alterazioni micro e macroangiopatiche diabetiche.

Askina® Calgitrol® Paste

Askina® Calgitrol® Paste is a sterile primary dressing consisting of an ionic silver alginate matrix in paste form, designed to treat chronic wounds which are infected or at high risk of infection.   The paste form, due to its water content, provides immediate availability of silver ions. Additionally, the ionic exchange with the wound exudate, delivers a sustained release of ionic silver to the wound bed.1   It is supplied sterile in a 15 g tube. The tube has a cannula to aid application of the paste into tunnels, sinuses, and all deep wounds. 2

Askina® Calgitrol® Ag+

Askina® Calgitrol® Ag+ is a wound dressing that combines antimicrobial silver with strengthening cellulose fiber to manage wound infection and high exudate. The dressing promotes healing in a moist environment.  When applied, Askina® Calgitrol® Ag+ responds by forming a gel on contact with wound exudate. The gelling formation traps, locks in and kills the bacteria away from the wound bed. It contains encapsulated nanoparticles of ionic silver encrusted into the strengthening cellulose fiber. The nanoparticles act as a reservoir of ionic silver and are released gradually in contact with wound fluid to kill bacteria and microorganisms within the dressing.Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, Askina® Calgitrol® Ag+ antimicrobial wound dressings may be used for:All agesModerately to heavily exuding woundsChronic wounds, e. g. leg ulcers, pressure ulcers and diabetic ulcersSurgical wounds, e. g. post-operative, wounds left to heal by secondary intent and donor sitesTraumatic wounds, e. g. abrasions and lacerationsPartial thickness burnsIf required, the dressings can be used in conjunction with a suitable moisture-retaining secondary dressing to keep the product in place and/or under compression.
