Hospital – Wound Treatment: Algoderm Trionic® (Japan)
Algoderm Trionic® (Japan)

- Bioactive Medical Device for Wound Therapy and Haemostasis
- Suitable for deep wounds that reach the bone
Embedded in a hydroactive biopolymer matrix, Manganese, Zinc and Calcium ions accelerate biological wound healing processes in all phases.
Those important enzyme co-factors are released in a controlled manner through ion exchange and migrate into cells involved in tissue regeneration.
Algoderm Trionic® (Japan) is effective to stimulate the blood clotting and wound healing.
Indications
Chronic wounds (e.g., diabetic foot, pressure sores, leg ulcers), traumatically caused wounds (e.g., intra- and postoperative bleeding, burns, surgical wounds), deep wounds, and wound cavities.
Bioactive Medical Device for Wound Therapy and Hemostasis
- Bio-active matrix enriched with 3 ions: Manganese, Calcium and Zinc
- CE marked in class III

| INDICATIONS | MECHANISM OF ACTION |
| Healing Moderate to heavily exuding wounds
|
Upon contact with the wound, ALGODERM TRIONIC absorbs exudate and traps necrotic debris and bacteria 1,2,3 in its interfibrilar matrix, thus promoting wound cleansing and granulation 4,5,9. At the same time, ALGODERM TRIONIC frees its zinc, calcium and manganese ions into the wound bed. The 3 ions stimulate key cells of the healing process and fasten tissue regeneration 4,5,6,7,8,9. Finally, upon contact with wound fluids ALGODERM TRIONIC gelifies and maintains a moist environment required for proper wound healing. ALGODERM TRIONIC is designed to minimize pain 2,3,9 and facilitate an easy removal, without damaging the newly formed tissue. |
| Haemostasis ALGODERM TRIONIC is efficient in patients with bleeding disorders whether congenital or acquired
|
Upon ontact with the wound, ALGODERM TRIONIC absorbs sodium ions from the blood and frees its zinc, calcium and manganese ions into the wound bed. This process is called IONIC EXCHANGE. The 3 ions released into the wound stimulate platelets activation and aggregation, and contribute to the chain reaction of the coagulation cascade. ALGODERM TRIONIC significantly accelerates haemostasis 7,8,9. |
ALGODERM TRIONIC can be used as interface with NPWT devices (follow the instructions of the device manufacturer).

*S0D (Superoxide dismutase) protects the cells against free radicals
ALGODERM TRIONIC enhances fibroblastic division by 50%, collagen type 1 production by 300% and collagen type Ill production by 400%⁶.
