Abena - 1977 - Calcium Alginate Dressing

     Abena Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing is a sterile and highly absorbent dressing designed to promote the healing of moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Measuring at 4" x 8", this rectangular dressing is made from natural calcium alginate fibers, which create a gel-like consistency upon contact with wound exudate to maintain a moist wound healing environment. This dressing is perfect for use on wounds such as pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and surgical wounds.

Features:
1. Highly Absorbent: The calcium alginate fibers quickly absorb and lock in wound exudate, reducing the risk of maceration and promoting optimal healing.
2. Gel Formation: Upon contact with wound exudate, the dressing forms a gel to create a moist environment that is conducive to the healing process.
3. Sterile: Each dressing is individually sterile to prevent the risk of infection and ensure safe use on open wounds.
4. Rectangle Shape: The 4" x 8" rectangular shape provides ample coverage for moderate to heavily exuding wounds, making it versatile for various wound types and sizes.

For Better Use:
Clean and disinfect the wound area before applying the Abena Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing. Apply the dressing directly onto the wound and ensure that it covers the entire area. Use a secondary dressing or tape to secure the Alginate Dressing in place. Check the dressing regularly and change as needed, based on the amount of wound exudate. Consult with a healthcare professional for specific wound care instructions.
