McKesson Gelling Fiber Wound Dressing, 4 x 4-3/4 Inch

McKesson Gelling Fiber Wound Dressing

The McKesson Gelling Fiber Wound Dressing is a highly absorbent primary dressing designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds. It's a practical choice for patients, caregivers, and clinicians treating a wide range of conditions, including pressure ulcers (decubitus ulcers), venous and arterial leg ulcers, diabetic ulcers, graft and donor sites, post-operative surgical wounds, superficial and partial-thickness burns, and cavity wounds. Its gelling fiber technology helps create the ideal healing environment right where you need it.

As the dressing absorbs wound fluid, its fibers transform into a soft gel that conforms to the wound bed and supports a moist wound environment for faster healing with a low risk of maceration to the surrounding skin. With excellent wet and dry strength, the dressing holds together during wear and removal, helping to keep the wound area clean and comfortable while locking away excess exudate.

This dressing is available in multiple purchase options so you can order the right quantity for your needs, from a Single dressing up to a Box of 10 or a Case of 100. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible. Please select your preferred option below to add it to your order.
