Cardinal Health Kendall Calcium Alginate Dressing is a specialized wound care solution designed for managing infected wounds. Its highly absorbent calcium alginate composition effectively absorbs up to 20 times its weight in exudate, transforming into a protective gel that promotes a moist and conducive wound healing environment. The non-adhesive design facilitates easy removal without damaging delicate wound tissue, while the sterile packaging ensures a clean application. Key benefits of this dressing include: efficient management of wound infection, creation of an optimal healing environment, protection of the wound bed and surrounding skin, and painless removal. It is indicated for infected wounds, drainage wounds, diabetic foot ulcers, and surgical and traumatic wounds. To apply, cleanse the wound, place the dressing directly on the wound bed, cover with a secondary dressing, and change as needed, typically every 1-3 days or when saturated.
