Latex-free, sterile, silver-containing calcium alginate dressing composed of soft, alginate textile fibers, CMC (carboxymethylcellulose) and ionic silver complex (silver carbonate). Release silver ions in the presence of wound fluid and protect dressing from microorganisms. As wound fluid absorbs into the dressing, it forms a soft, non-adhering gel to help promote the healing process while maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound management.
A soft, highly absorbent (absorbs more than 14 times its weight) dressing that quickly forms a hydrophilic gel to protect and cover the wound bed. Holds together wet or dry. While many alginates dissolve, this dressing keeps its form so it's easy to remove, generally on one piece. Latex free.
Provides absorbency while remaining non-adherent to sensitive wounds. The dressing is bonded on both sides by a smooth, perforated polyester film outer surface, therefore it will not disrupt tissue healing by sticking to the wound. The inner absorbent layer is made of a polyester/rayon material. May be cut to fit various wound sizes with virtually no loose fibers.

Primary wound dressing made of Calcium Alginate containing 1.4% silver. In the presence of wound exudate, the sodium ions from the exudate take the place of the silver ions, releasing the silver ions. As wound exudate is absorbed, the alginate forms a gel, which assists in maintaining a moist environment for the optimal wound healing, and allows intact removal. The silver ions released in the presence of wound fluid protect the dressing from bacterial colonization and provides an effective barrier to bacterial penetration. Antimicrobial effect lasts up to seven dates. Does not contain natural rubber latex.
