Product Overview
Gentell Gen-13500 Calcium Alginate Dressing is a highly absorbent wound care dressing designed for effective exudate management. Made from natural seaweed fibers, it forms a soft, moist gel upon contact with wound fluid, promoting optimal healing conditions while maintaining a bacteria-barrier environment. This 4" x 4" dressing is ideal for moderate to heavily exudating wounds, including pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and diabetic foot ulcers. Its gentle structure allows for painless removal without disrupting healing tissue.
