Description:
This silver calcium alginate dressing turns into a soft gel when in contact with wound exudate, maintaining a moist environment that supports natural debridement and removal of nonviable tissue. The ionic silver provides sustained antimicrobial protection by reducing bacterial growth within the dressing. Designed for moderate to heavy drainage, it is effective in managing diabetic foot ulcers, venous and arterial ulcers, pressure injuries, and other complex wounds.
