Description:
Active Ingredient(s): COLLASATE™ contains only a natural medical hydrolysate Type I collagen as its active ingredient. Unlike other collagen products, which are made from native collagen, COLLASATE™ is a patented product manufactured from a proprietary process which creates a product of a specified molecular weight.
Indications:
Advanced COLLASATE™ technology provides for topical use in the management of surgical sites, chronic and acute wounds and all partial and full-thickness wounds, including: surgical sites, dental extractions and oral surgery, pressure ulcers (Stages I-IV), venous stasis ulcers, ulcers resulting from arterial insufficiency, traumatic wounds, superficial wounds, first and second degree burns, spays, neutering, de-clawing, foot pad injuries, hot spots, diabetic ulcers, lick granulomas.
COLLASATE™ can be used on many types of animals, including mammals, birds and reptiles, with no known side effects. COLLASATE™ is non-toxic and has no contraindications.
Dosage and Administration:
Product Administration:
- Cleanse the site.
- Apply COLLASATE™ directly into the wound or incision and onto the surrounding area.
- Allow gel to dry, then cover with a non-stick dressing (Telfa® pad). Gauze is recommended as the secondary dressing if removing debris from the site. Superficial wounds such as cuts and abrasions may not require a secondary dressing due to the film that COLLASATE™ forms on the wound site after drying.
- Remove dressing as needed (if secondary dressing sticks to wound, soak in warm water to ease removal) and repeat procedure.
Storage:
Store at controlled room temperature (59-86F). Protect from freezing. Extreme temperatures may affect viscosity but will not affect product performance.
Caution(s):
If condition worsens or does not improve within 10-14 days, contact your veterinarian.
Discussion:
COLLASATE™ is a revolutionary scientific breakthrough in the management of surgical and trauma sites. An all-natural gel product, COLLASATE™ interacts with the site to provide a moist healing environment. Collagen also provides a matrix for cellular colonization and tissue regeneration.
COLLASATE™ Characteristics: reduces pain, tissue adhesive properties, protects the site and newly formed granulation tissue, soothes and deodorizes, hemostatic qualities of collagen†, promotes natural autolysis by rehydrating and softening necrotic, tissue and eschar, encouraging autolytic debridement, provides physiologically favorable environment that encourages healing, absorbs exudate, conforms to any site, safe to use, non-toxic, biocompatible, biodegradable.
