Made from \u003cstrong\u003esodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)\u003c\/strong\u003e reinforced with strengthening cellulose fibers, it's ideal for caregivers and clinicians managing wounds that need reliable exudate control while maintaining a healthy, moist healing environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn contact with wound fluid, the fibers transform into a cohesive gel that \u003cstrong\u003etraps debris and bacteria and retains them inside the dressing\u003c\/strong\u003e. Its \u003cstrong\u003ehigh vertical absorption\u003c\/strong\u003e pulls exudate straight up into the fiber structure, helping protect the wound and the surrounding skin from maceration. The gel offers enhanced conformability to the wound bed and maintains its structure even when saturated, so the dressing lifts away cleanly during changes for a more comfortable removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis dressing measures \u003cstrong\u003e4 x 5 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e and is available in a \u003cstrong\u003eSingle\u003c\/strong\u003e or a convenient \u003cstrong\u003eBox of 10\u003c\/strong\u003e.
