{"title":"AquaRite","description":"\u003ch1\u003eAquaRite CMC Wound Dressings\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAquaRite gel-forming dressings solve one of the trickiest parts of wound management: handling exudate without drying out the wound bed or macerating the skin around it. Built on carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) fiber technology, the AquaRite Extra line absorbs drainage and transforms into a soft, cohesive gel that locks fluid vertically — away from healthy peri-wound tissue — while keeping the wound surface reliably moist for autolytic healing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClinicians reach for these dressings on moderately to heavily exuding wounds: pressure injuries, diabetic and venous leg ulcers, donor sites, partial-thickness burns, and surgical wounds. The gelling action also makes removal gentler, lifting cleanly with minimal trauma or pain at dressing changes — a real advantage over dressings that dry down and adhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the Right Size and Format\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat matters more than shape here, because it's dictated by wound geometry. The \u003cstrong\u003eAquaRite Extra 2 x 2 in square (40220)\u003c\/strong\u003e suits smaller or shallower wounds and tricky-to-cover areas. The \u003cstrong\u003e4 x 5 in rectangle (40450)\u003c\/strong\u003e and the larger \u003cstrong\u003e6 x 6 in sheet (40660)\u003c\/strong\u003e cover broader wound beds efficiently. For undermining, tunneling, or narrow cavity wounds, the \u003cstrong\u003e3\/4 x 18 in rope (40318)\u003c\/strong\u003e packs into dead space where a flat sheet can't reach. A general rule: the dressing should extend slightly beyond the wound margin, and cavity wounds should be loosely filled — not packed tight — to allow the gel room to expand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAquaRite dressings are non-adhesive and require a secondary cover such as a film, foam, or bordered dressing to secure them in place. Because CMC fiber holds fluid so effectively, many wounds can go several days between changes, reducing disruption to the healing bed and easing the workload for busy caregivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese dressings pair naturally with other advanced options — explore related \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/alginates\"\u003eAlginates\u003c\/a\u003e for very high exudate, protective \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/foam-dressings\"\u003eFoam Dressings\u003c\/a\u003e as a secondary cover, or browse the full range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/advanced-wound-dressings\"\u003eAdvanced Wound Dressings\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"aquarite-extra-cmc-wound-dressing","title":"AquaRite Extra CMC Wound Dressing","description":"DermaRite AquaRite Extra CMC Wound Dressing is a highly absorbent dressing that forms a strong clear gel when exposed to wound exudate. The gel formation traps debris and bacteria and retains it inside the fiber dressing. AquaRite Extra CMC’s gel has enhanced conformability to wound bed surfaces and maintains its structure even when saturated, facilitating removal. It is a soft, conformable non-woven dressing made from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and strengthening cellulose fibers. The high vertical absorption of exudate into the fiber dressing protects the wound and surrounding skin from maceration.","brand":"AquaRite","offers":[{"title":"4 x 5 Inch \/ Box (10)","offer_id":53140810957116,"sku":"M143257","price":39.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4 x 18 Inch \/ Box (5)","offer_id":53140810989884,"sku":"M138179","price":72.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"6 x 6 Inch \/ Box (5)","offer_id":53140811022652,"sku":"M138393","price":82.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2 x 2 Inch \/ Box (10)","offer_id":53140811055420,"sku":"M138147","price":16.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 x 2 Inch \/ Each (1)","offer_id":53140811088188,"sku":"M138146","price":1.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3\/4 x 18 Inch \/ Each (1)","offer_id":53140811120956,"sku":"M138180","price":8.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 x 6 Inch \/ Each (1)","offer_id":53140811153724,"sku":"M138392","price":17.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4 x 5 Inch \/ Each (1)","offer_id":53140811186492,"sku":"M143256","price":4.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3735\/5324\/files\/78aebe41-c938-4c78-c955-775660ea6a4f_m_cd8f31dc-e9dd-4daf-a8da-3641f497f5a8.jpg?v=1781853718"}],"url":"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/aquarite.oembed","provider":"Honest Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
