LotFancy Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing, 4"x 4" Patches, 5-Count, Sterile Non-Stick Padding

Super Absorbent Calcium Alginate Wound Pads. Each wound dressing is made of natural seaweed fiber (alginate) and calcium ion. Highly absorbent, soft and comfortable, gentle on skin, won’t adhere to the wound. The non-adherent pads can absorb 20 times more exudate than regular gauze pads. A superior alternative to standard cotton bandages. PLEASE NOTE: packaging received may vary. Calcium Alginate Dressings absorb wound exudate and release calcium ions. Calcium ions will activate prothrombin to help stop bleeding and promote the healing process. Meanwhile, the Calcium Alginate Dressing then forms a hydrogel to provide a moist wound healing environment. The alginate dressing pads are 4"x 4", handy size for convenient design. Easily cut to desired size or shape to conform to your body contours. You can cut them in thin strips to fill wound. These non-adhering dressings are intended for moderate and high exudating wounds, chronic or acute exudating wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, bedsores, cysts, post-operative wounds and other minor traumas. A good alternative to non-stick cotton bandage.
