Description of 5-Pack MedVance TM Alginate Dressing - Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing, 4.25"X4.25

WHY ALGINATE? Alginate dressings produce a hydrophilic gel when it comes into contact with wound exudate to provide a moist wound healing environment. This natural gel layer protects the wound and allows it to effectively heal. PROMOTE HEALING: Our alginate dressing pads offer high absorbency and provide the optimal environment to promote healing. Alginate is a better alternative to gauze as it is softer, more absorbent, and gentle on the skin. COMFORTABLE USE: Conforms to body contours and provides maximum patient comfort. Does not stick to the wound to prevent secondary damage and can be cut to size for those difficult areas. STERILE AND INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED: Each dressing is manufactured in a sterile facility and are individually wrapped to prevent contamination of wounds. Can be used in hospitals, senior care homes, hospice, and other medical facilities. MULTI-USE: Effective for applications such as post-operative wounds, bed sores, cysts, pressure ulcers, burns, and other minor traumas. Approved for Level II of the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS). Use code A6197 for billing/claims

Good product - my new review

I've been using alginate dressing for various personal wounds for years (since the 80's when it was first released in the UK). This particular product is not quite the same as I'm used to, but still very good. Excellent value for money too as the one I'm accustomed to is much more expensive

Pros
  • It absorbs really well and is at the right price.
Cons
  • This wound dressing may require additional time and effort to apply compared to other wound dressings, due to its unique texture and composition

Calcium Alginate is the best for wound healing!

This is a great product to put over open wounds that are wet. It dries out the wound and heals it. We used this product in the hospital for diabetic wounds when I worked as an RN. Retired now, but this came in handy when I had a diabetic wound on my leg. Healed it up within a week!

Pros
  • Excellent
Cons
  • Limited Coverage: The 4.25"X4.25" size of the MedVance TM Alginate Dressing may not be sufficient for larger wounds, limiting its functionality
