Medline Maxorb II Alginate Wound Dressings

Medline Maxorb II Alginate Wound Dressings are ultra-absorptive, primary dressings made from 100% calcium alginate. 1 They are designed to manage moderate to heavily draining wounds by transforming into a gel upon contact with wound fluid, creating a moist environment that supports natural healing. Superior Absorbency: It is 70% more absorbent than leading gelling fiber products and significantly more absorbent than the original Maxorb. One-Piece Removal: High wet-strength integrity ensures the dressing removes in one piece, minimizing residue left in the wound bed and making dressing changes more comfortable. Vertical Wicking: Fluid is wicked vertically into the dressing, which helps prevent skin maceration (damage caused by moisture) to the surrounding healthy skin. Extended Wear: Depending on the amount of drainage, these dressings can be left in place for up to 7 days.
