Description of Box Of 5 MedVance TM Calcium Alginate Dressings, 4"X8", For Effective Wound Treatment

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

Not as Expected best in my review

Maybe I failed to read what these pads actually were BUT there was no adhesive so I needed to have this and that on hand in order to use. Again, not as expected

Pros
  • It absorbs really well and is at the right price.
Cons
  • With its expensive price tag, this product might be inaccessible for those who are in need of effective wound treatment but do not have the necessary funds to acquire this product

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
  • Good product. Works as expected
Cons
  • Fragility: These dressings could break easily, leading to frustration and potential setbacks in the healing process if it's not suitable for the wound size

Thumbs down 👎 good for me

Very deceiving advertising. It states they are just like Mepilex & other brands with adhesive. These have no adhesive. I returned them

Pros
  • See above
Cons
  • Did not really do much for my wound

calcium alginate dressing

excellent price and shipping time was very good and in good condition (not squashed, etc). Will use again. That's my review!

Pros
  • Item is this advertised
Cons
  • it was 5 count not a 10 count. Feel that I paid to much

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice but more difficult to use than it could be.

I like them, but they need one surface that tape will stick to. I have to 'cocoon' it (put tape all the way across it so the tape can stick to itself) to use it.

Pros
  • great product, good price expeditious delivery
Cons
  • Take Time to Heal

Wound Care good for me

I have purchased this item several times during my rehabilitation and will purchase again as needed. You can cut these down to fit your would allowing you to save the rest for your next dressing change.

Pros
  • Excelente. Muy buen precio. Recomendado a la comunidad de Ebay.
Cons
  • Leg sone, would Dr use, so bought own
