Description:
This silver calcium alginate dressing forms a soft gel on contact with wound fluid, maintaining a moist environment that aids in natural autolytic debridement and removal of nonviable tissue. The ionic silver provides sustained antimicrobial action by reducing bacterial growth within the dressing. Highly absorbent, it is designed for wounds with moderate to heavy drainage, including diabetic foot ulcers, venous and arterial leg ulcers, pressure injuries, and other complex wounds.
