ConvaTec Kaltostat Calcium Sodium Alginate Dressing, Rectangle

The ConvaTec Kaltostat Calcium Sodium Alginate Dressing is a soft, sterile wound dressing made from calcium-sodium alginate fiber. When it comes into contact with wound fluid, the fiber converts into a firm, cohesive gel/fiber mat that helps create an optimal moist wound healing environment while managing drainage.

This rectangular alginate dressing is designed to absorb exudate from moderately to heavily draining wounds and can also help control minor bleeding at the wound site. It is nonadhesive, making it gentle to apply and easier to remove without disturbing fragile new tissue, which can help reduce patient discomfort during dressing changes.

Kaltostat is available in multiple sizes — 3" x 4.75" and 4" x 8" — so you can choose the option that best fits the wound area; simply select your preferred size above. This dressing is commonly used by clinicians and caregivers for surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, and other wounds with moderate to heavy exudate.

What is Kaltostat dressing made of?
Kaltostat is made of calcium-sodium alginate fiber, a soft, sterile material that converts into a firm gel/fiber mat when it contacts wound fluid.
What sizes does the ConvaTec Kaltostat Dressing come in?
This dressing is available in two sizes, 3" x 4.75" and 4" x 8", selectable on the product page.
Is Kaltostat dressing adhesive?
No, Kaltostat is a nonadhesive dressing, which helps make application and removal gentler on the wound and surrounding skin.
What types of wounds is this dressing designed for?
Kaltostat is designed for wounds with moderate to heavy exudate and can also help control minor bleeding at the wound site.
Does Kaltostat require a secondary dressing?
Because Kaltostat is nonadhesive, it is typically used with an appropriate secondary dressing to secure it in place, per your clinician's instructions.
