DermaRite AquaRite Extra CMC Wound Dressing, Sterile, 4" x 5"

The DermaRite AquaRite Extra CMC Wound Dressing is a sterile, gelling fiber dressing designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) combined with strengthening cellulose fibers, this soft, nonwoven dressing conforms closely to the wound bed to support an optimal moist wound healing environment.

As the dressing absorbs wound exudate, it transforms into a cohesive gel that traps bacteria and debris within its fiber structure, helping to reduce the risk of contamination while promoting autolytic debridement. Unlike dressings that break down when saturated, AquaRite Extra CMC maintains its integrity even at full capacity, allowing for clean, intact removal during dressing changes and minimizing trauma to fragile periwound tissue.

This 4 x 5 inch rectangle dressing offers high vertical wicking action, drawing fluid up and away from the wound surface rather than spreading it laterally. This helps protect the surrounding skin from maceration, a common complication in wound care management. The enhanced conformability of this gelling fiber dressing allows it to adapt to a variety of wound contours, making it a versatile choice for clinicians and caregivers managing draining wounds.

Each dressing is individually packaged and sterile, ready for immediate clinical or home healthcare use. Whether used as a primary dressing under secondary coverage or as part of a broader wound care protocol, the AquaRite Extra CMC dressing from DermaRite delivers reliable absorption and gentle, effective wound management.
