Medline Maxorb Extra CMC/Alginate Wound Dressings are designed to manage moderate to heavily draining partial- and full-thickness wounds effectively. These dressings utilize a combination of CMC (carboxymethylcellulose) and alginate fibers to provide superior absorbency. Their unique construction helps to wick fluid vertically, which aids in preventing maceration of the surrounding skin. This vertical wicking action promotes a healthy wound environment and can contribute to improved healing outcomes. With the potential for up to a 7-day wear time, these dressings offer extended wear intervals depending on the level of wound exudate.
