Smith&Nephew 66000519 - ALGISITE M, Non Woven Calcium Alginate Sterile Dressing, Latex Free, 2"x 2", BX 10

The Smith & Nephew ALGISITE M calcium alginate dressing is a trusted solution for managing wounds with moderate to heavy drainage right at home. This sterile, latex-free dressing is designed to help caregivers and patients handle challenging wounds like pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, surgical wounds, and minor burns with confidence and comfort. Each 2 inch by 2 inch dressing is made from soft, absorbent calcium alginate fibers that naturally form a gentle gel when they come into contact with wound fluid. This gel helps keep the wound moist, which supports faster healing and helps prevent scabs from forming, while also absorbing excess drainage to keep the area clean. ALGISITE M is highly absorbent and can soak up many times its own weight in fluid, so it can often stay in place for several days depending on your wound's needs, reducing how often you need to change it. The dressing is soft and conformable, so it molds easily to the shape of different wounds and can be cut or folded to fit just right. When it's time for a dressing change, the gel lifts away gently in one piece without sticking to delicate healing tissue, making removal comfortable and stress-free at home. With its low fiber shedding and high wet strength, this Smith & Nephew dressing offers reliable, effective wound care you can trust. Each box contains 10 individually wrapped sterile dressings.
