Abstract

This chapter considers how wound dressings are used in the treatment of wounds identifying the ideal properties of a wound dressing. Changes in the treatment of wounds with dressings since 1980 are discussed highlighting the current availability of a wide range of advanced wound dressings that clinicians have to select from for each wound they treat. Alginate wound dressings are introduced with their chemistry briefly considered and their indications and contraindications for clinical use reported. The clinical evidence supporting the use of alginate wound dressings is discussed highlighting the generally weak evidence underpinning the use of all advanced wound dressings. Recent reviews of the effectiveness of alginate dressings noted that across all the studies, there were no statistically significant differences between the outcomes achieved using the alginate dressings and the comparison groups. It is concluded that alginate dressings are currently not in widespread use in the UK National Health Service and may now be considered as comparisons against which new technologies may be compared.
