Tegaderm High Gelling Alginate Dressing is an effective solution for wounds where fragile tissue could be damaged during dressing change. It completely gels when saturated allowing for the dressing to be removed easily with gentle irrigation. This dressing can also absorb up to 20 times its own weight in wound exudate and is a good choice for individuals with moderate to heavily exuding wounds. The dressing is comfortable and conformable to the shape of the wound and with compatible 3M cover dressings, the wound will be protected from the risk of outside contaminants. The 4 x 4-inch High Gelling Alginate Dressing will maintain a moist wound environment to speed healing for a variety of different wounds.
