Tyco Covidien 9239 - Curasorb Calcium Algenate Dressing, 6" x 10", Sterile, CS/50

Curasorb Calcium Alginate Dressing by Covidien provides highly absorbent wound care for managing moderate to heavily draining wounds at home. This sterile 6 inch by 10 inch dressing is designed to absorb up to 20 times its own weight in wound fluid, making it an excellent choice for pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and other injuries that produce significant drainage. The calcium alginate material works by interacting with sodium in the wound bed to create a protective gel that maintains a moist healing environment while helping prevent skin breakdown around the wound edges. This gentle gel formation makes dressing changes less painful and easier to manage without traumatic removal. Curasorb dressings feature a unique fiber configuration that encourages vertical wicking, pulling fluid straight through the dressing for more efficient absorption. The high calcium content helps jump-start the natural healing process while the protective gel cushions the wound and prevents maceration of surrounding healthy skin. Each sterile dressing should be applied dry and covered with a secondary dressing, making it suitable for home care use by patients and caregivers managing chronic wounds. This versatile wound dressing is latex-free and comes in a case of 50 individual sterile dressings, providing excellent value for ongoing wound management. Trust Curasorb calcium alginate dressings for effective, comfortable wound care that supports healing in the comfort of home.
