Product Overview
The Gentell Algicell Ag Silver Impregnated Calcium Alginate Dressing, Sterile, 8" x 12", is designed for managing moderate to heavily exuding wounds with bacterial concerns.

- Silver impregnation provides antimicrobial protection against a broad spectrum of bacteria.
- Calcium alginate fibers absorb exudate and form a gel-like consistency to maintain a moist wound environment.
- Sterile, lint-free, and non-adherent to minimize trauma during dressing changes.
- Suitable for partial and full-thickness wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers, venous ulcers, pressure ulcers, and surgical wounds.
Specifications:
- Material: Silver impregnated calcium alginate.
- Size: 8" x 12".
- Sterility: Sterile.
- Unit Count: Single dressing per package.
Use Suggestion:
Apply Algicell Ag directly to the wound bed after cleansing. Cover with an appropriate secondary dressing based on exudate levels. Change according to clinical need or when exudate strikes through the secondary dressing. Monitor wound progression and discontinue use if signs of irritation or lack of healing occur. Suitable for professional and prescribed home care use.
