Description
Kaltostat Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing by ConvaTec is a soft, non-woven fibre pad derived from calcium and sodium alginate. Designed for light to moderately exuding wounds — including leg ulcers, pressure injuries, and post-surgical sites — it absorbs wound fluid and converts to a firm, cohesive gel that maintains a moist healing environment without adhering to the wound bed. This 5 cm x 5 cm size suits smaller wounds and awkward sites requiring a neat, manageable dressing.
Key Features
