Description
Cardinal Health Calcium Alginate Dressings
Absorbs exudate from wound and creates a protective cushioning gel and optimal moist healing environment. Protective gel binds exudate and helps prevent skin maceration. Easy, painless dressing removal minimizes tissue trauma and maximizes patient comfort. Absorbs approximately 20 times dressing weight.
Cardinal Health Calcium Alginate Dressings are highly absorbent wound care products designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds. These dressings are made from natural alginate fibers derived from seaweed, which form a gel-like substance when in contact with wound exudate. This gel creates a moist healing environment, promoting faster wound healing and minimizing the risk of maceration. The dressings are ideal for managing a variety of wounds, including pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, donor sites, and traumatic injuries.
The Cardinal Health Calcium Alginate Dressings are available in various sizes to accommodate different wound types and locations. These dressings are non-adhesive, which allows for easy application and removal without causing trauma to the wound bed. The high absorbency capacity ensures that the dressing can handle large amounts of exudate, reducing the need for frequent dressing changes.
Calcium Alginate Dressings Features:
- Highly Absorbent: The dressings can absorb up to 20 times their weight in exudate, making them suitable for moderate to heavily exuding wounds.
- Gel Formation: Upon contact with wound exudate, the alginate fibers transform into a soft gel that helps maintain a moist wound environment, promoting healing.
- Non-Adhesive: These dressings do not adhere to the wound bed, ensuring painless removal and minimizing the risk of tissue damage.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for a wide range of wound types, including pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and donor sites.
- Easy Application and Removal: The dressings conform to the wound bed, making them easy to apply and remove without causing discomfort.

Guide to Using Cardinal Health Calcium Alginate Dressings:
- Wound Assessment: Before applying the dressing, assess the wound to determine the level of exudate and ensure that it is suitable for an alginate dressing.
- Dressing Application:
- Clean the wound with an appropriate wound cleanser or saline solution.
- Select a dressing size that will adequately cover the wound. The dressing can be cut to fit the wound if necessary.
- Place the dressing directly on the wound bed, ensuring full contact with the exudate.
- If needed, secure the dressing with a secondary dressing or bandage to keep it in place.
- Dressing Changes:
- The frequency of dressing changes depends on the level of exudate. Change the dressing when it is fully saturated or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
- To remove, gently lift the dressing away from the wound. If the dressing adheres to the wound, moisten it with saline to facilitate easy removal.
- Disposal: Dispose of the used dressing according to local medical waste disposal regulations.
