Kendall Calcium Alginate Dressing Overview
Kendall Calcium Alginate Dressings absorb large amounts of wound exudate and facilitate moist wound healing for many different types of moderately or highly exuding wounds. The calcium alginate dressings effectively absorb up to 20 times their weight in exudate and form a gel that creates a moist healing environment and protects the wound. Because the dressings are so absorbent, they do not require the same changing frequency as other dressings. These dressings work with numerous wound types, such as pressure ulcers, deep tunneling wounds, and second-degree burns. The unique weave provides a simple one-piece removal.
