Wound Dressing with Calcium Alginate for Better Absorption from Medline

The 100% Calcium Alginate dressing with superior absorption is a groundbreaking advancement in wound care. Its exceptional ability to vertically wick fluid not only prevents peri-wound skin maceration but also ensures effective management of moderate to heavily draining partial- and full-thickness wounds. This innovative dressing offers an impressive seven-day wear time, providing extended protection and reducing the frequency of dressing changes. The superior absorption capabilities of this product make it an ideal choice for maintaining a moist wound environment, thereby promoting optimal healing.

With its remarkable benefits, this dressing sets a new standard in advanced wound care, delivering superior performance and exceptional patient comfort. The unique design and structural integrity of the dressing allow it to conform to the wound bed, which is crucial for the wound-healing process. Additionally, the gel formation of this dressing locks exudation inside the gel, preventing leakage that can cause maceration of the surrounding skin.

Calcium Alginate dressings are highly beneficial in managing chronic wounds, particularly diabetic foot ulcers. Studies have shown that calcium alginate dressings can accelerate the healing of diabetic wounds by enhancing the contraction of wounds, reducing inflammatory reactions, and increasing the levels of type I collagen and hydroxyproline, which significantly improves wound tensile strength. This dressing not only improves the wound closure rate but also exhibits excellent bio-compatibility, making it suitable for patients with sensitive skin or those prone to allergic reactions.
