ALGISITE M 6X8″ CTN 10 – Smith & Nephew Wound Mgmt. – 59480300

AlgiSite M Calcium Alginate Dressing- 6″ x 8″ – Made of fast-gelling, high mannuronic acid fibers from calcium alginate, which is extracted and purified from a natural, renewable source- seaweed. When exudate comes into contact with AlgiSite M, it forms a hydrophilic gel that remains in intimate contact with the wound surface, helping to create and maintain a moist wound enviornment. Faster, cleaner dressing changes result in less nursing time becuase once gelled the dressing stays stronger, longer.
