McKesson Calcium Alginate Dressing Sheet, Sterile, 4 x 4¾ Inch

The McKesson Calcium Alginate Dressing is designed for wounds producing moderate to heavy exudate, offering reliable absorption while supporting a favorable healing environment. Derived from natural seaweed fibers, this calcium alginate sheet transforms into a soft gel upon contact with wound fluid, helping to maintain a moist wound bed without adhering to delicate tissue. Its optimal gelling profile allows the dressing to be lifted away in one piece, reducing trauma and discomfort during dressing changes.

Measuring 4 x 4¾ inches, this sterile rectangular dressing is highly absorptive and nonocclusive, making it suitable for a range of wound types including those with irregular depths or dead space that needs to be gently filled or packed. The dressing can also be trimmed to match the specific dimensions of a wound, allowing for a more precise and conforming fit during application.

In addition to its absorption capabilities, this alginate dressing may help control minor bleeding, offering added versatility for wound care professionals and caregivers. Please note that a secondary dressing is required to secure the alginate in place and protect the wound from outside contaminants. Each dressing is individually sterile, supporting safe and effective use in clinical and home healthcare settings alike.

Trusted for its dependable performance, the McKesson Calcium Alginate Dressing Sheet is a practical choice for managing exuding wounds while promoting an environment conducive to healing.
