Restore Calcium Alginate Dressing

Restore Calcium Alginate Dressing is a wound dressing made from calcium alginate, a seaweed-derived natural fibre. Dressings made of calcium alginate are used to absorb wound fluid and promote wound healing. They are also effective at controlling odor and preventing infection. Calcium alginate dressings absorb wound fluid and form a gel, which helps to keep the wound moist. This moist environment is ideal for wound healing because it promotes the body's natural healing processes. The gel also helps to keep bacteria and other contaminants away from the wound. Restore Calcium Alginate Dressing comes in a variety of sizes and shapes to accommodate various wounds. It is usually left in place for 24 to 48 hours, but it may be longer which requires frequent change for dressings.
