Key Features:

  • Highly absorbent calcium alginate: Offers exceptional absorption capacity, managing large volumes of wound exudate and maintaining a moist wound environment conducive to healing.
  • Silver-impregnated: Provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity for effective infection prevention and control.
  • Hemostatic: Helps to control minor bleeding and minimize blood loss.
  • Gelling action: Forms a gel-like substance that protects the exposed wound bed, facilitating autolytic debridement and promoting tissue regeneration.
  • Conformable: Adapts to the shape of the wound, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
  • Sterile: Individually wrapped to maintain sterility and prevent contamination.

Benefits:

  • Promotes optimal healing: The combined action of calcium alginate and silver creates a powerful dressing that promotes rapid and effective wound healing.
  • Reduces infection risk: The silver impregnation effectively inhibits the growth of a wide range of bacteria and fungi, minimizing the risk of infection and its complications.
  • Manages exudate efficiently: The high absorption capacity of the dressing effectively manages large volumes of wound exudate, preventing maceration and promoting a healthy wound environment.
  • Protects wound bed: The gel-like substance formed by the dressing creates a protective barrier, shielding the wound from further injury and facilitating natural healing processes.
  • Easy application and removal: The dressing is simple to apply and remove, minimizing discomfort and disruption to the wound healing process.
  • Comfortable wear: The dressing is soft and flexible, adapting to the shape of the wound and providing comfort for the patient.
