Calcium Alginates: Primary dressing that can be cut to fit wounds with moderate to heavy exudate. They absorb wound fluid while maintaining a moist wound environment. The alginate, derived from seaweed, turns to a moist gel mass material when saturated. Requires a secondary dressing.

  • Helps absorb moderate to heavy amounts of wound exudate and may help control minor bleeding

  • Can be used to fill or pack the dead space in a wound

  • Optimal gelling profile allows dressing to avoid sticking to the wound bed and helps maintain physical integrity to allow removal from the wound in one piece

  • A secondary dressing is needed to hold alginates in place and to protect the wound from outside contaminants

  • Highly absorptive, non-occlusive

  • May be trimmed to fit wound dimensions, Do not reuse

  • Not Made with Natural Rubber Latex
