Caltoost Nonwoven Advanced Dressing Caltoost Alginates Dressing is an alginate dressing used as a primary dressing for moderate to severe chronic and acute wounds with moderate to heavy exudate, and wounds with slight bleeding. When in contact with exudate, the dressing gradually forms a cohesive, moist gel with high absorption. Exudate Management - for moderate to heavy exuding wounds Caltoost dressing is a calcium sodium alginate absorbent (80% calcium and 20% sodium) rich in guluronic acid. When in contact with wound exudate, calcium ions in the dressing exchange with sodium ions in the exudate, transforming the dressing from a dry fibrous state into a cohesive, moist gel state. The dressing provides a moist environment that helps create optimal wound healing conditions and maintains its integrity, allowing easy removal without causing damage. Caltoost dressing is also designed to promote exudate, providing a matrix to support clot formation. Clinical Benefits: - Supports a moist wound healing environment - Does not adhere to the wound surface, allowing easy removal without causing damage - Lasts longer than traditional dressings, making it cost-effective - Hemostatic - helps stop minor bleeding Indications: Caltoost dressing is used as a primary dressing for moderate to heavy exuding wounds and for wounds with slight bleeding.
