Alginate Dressing McKesson Calcium Alginate 4 X 4-3/4 Inch Rectangle
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.
Highly absorptive, nonocclusive
Can be used to fill or pack the dead space in a wound
Helps absorb moderate to heavy amounts of wound exudate and may help control minor bleeding
May be trimmed to fit wound dimensions
A secondary dressing is needed to hold alginates in place and to protect the wound from outside contaminants.
