Gentell GEN-13820 Calcium Alginate Ag 8" x 8" Dressing

The Gentell GEN-13820 Calcium Alginate, Ag dressing is a versatile and effective wound care solution designed for use in various medical settings, including hospitals, clinics, and home care environments. This dressing stands out for its ability to promote a moist healing environment while protecting the wound from bacterial contamination, thanks to the presence of silver (Ag), which is known for its antimicrobial properties.

This calcium alginate dressing is intended for the management of moderately to heavily draining wounds, including pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and surgical wounds. It works by forming a gel-like substance when it comes into contact with wound exudate, which helps to maintain a moist environment conducive to healing. The dressing is easy to apply and remove, reducing the risk of damaging the wound or surrounding tissue.
