Silver Alginate Wound Dressing Rope - Antimicrobial Calcium Alginate with Silver 3/4" x 12" Sterile

Advanced Silver-Infused Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing

Professional-grade antimicrobial wound care solution engineered for moderate to heavy exuding wounds. This sterile rope dressing combines the superior absorbency of calcium alginate fibers with the proven antimicrobial protection of ionic silver technology, delivering comprehensive wound management for healthcare facilities, surgical centers, and home health applications.

Clinical Performance Features

• Antimicrobial Silver Protection: Contains 5% Silver Sodium Hydrogen Zirconium Phosphate by weight, providing sustained antimicrobial activity to help reduce bacterial colonization and support optimal wound healing environments
• Superior Absorption Capacity: Highly absorptive calcium alginate fibers effectively manage moderate to heavy wound exudate while maintaining a moist wound healing environment
• Hemostatic Properties: May assist in controlling minor bleeding through ion exchange mechanism when alginate contacts wound exudate
• Optimal Gelling Profile: Upon contact with wound fluid, transforms into a soft, conformable gel that maintains intimate contact with the wound bed without adhering to delicate tissue, facilitating atraumatic removal in one intact piece
• Versatile Wound Packing: Rope configuration (3/4 inch x 12 inch / 1.9 cm x 30.5 cm) is specifically designed to fill, pack, or line deep wounds, tunneling wounds, undermined areas, and cavity wounds
• Customizable Sizing: Non-occlusive dressing may be trimmed or cut to precisely fit individual wound dimensions and anatomical contours

Product Specifications

• Dimensions: 3/4 inch x 12 inch (1.9 cm x 30.5 cm)
• Configuration: Rope/packing strip format
• Silver Content: 5% Silver Sodium Hydrogen Zirconium Phosphate (by weight)
• Sterility: Sterile, single-use only - do not reuse
• Latex Status: Not made with natural rubber latex
• Dressing Type: Non-occlusive, requires secondary dressing

Clinical Applications

Ideal for managing a wide range of wound types including pressure injuries, diabetic ulcers, venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, surgical wounds, traumatic wounds, donor sites, partial and full-thickness wounds, and cavity wounds requiring antimicrobial protection. The rope format excels in deep wound spaces, sinus tracts, and tunneling wounds where traditional flat dressings cannot reach.

Application Protocol

Requires secondary dressing coverage to secure the alginate in place and provide barrier protection against external contaminants. The highly absorptive, non-occlusive design allows wound exudate to be wicked away while maintaining optimal moisture balance. Physical integrity remains intact during wear time, enabling clean, one-piece removal without leaving residual fibers in the wound bed.

Quality Assurance

Manufactured to rigorous quality standards for professional healthcare use in hospitals, long-term care facilities, outpatient wound clinics, surgical centers, and home health settings. Each dressing is individually packaged to maintain sterility until point of use.

For professional and institutional use. Single-use sterile device. Consult healthcare provider for appropriate wound assessment and dressing selection.
