Niceful 10 Packs Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing 4" X 4", HSA FSA Eligible, Highly Absorbent Alginate Dressing Pad, Soft Calcium Alginate Sterile Wound Dressings Non-Stick

I ordered and received these Niceful Alginate Wound Dressing, 4" X 4" Patches. These are described as sterile and highly absorbent wound dressings. They are latex-free.These dressings arrived with 10 dressings individually wrapped in the box of 10. These are described as soft and flexible and ideal for exudative (draining) wounds. Alginate dressings form a gel that helps protect the wound and minimize pain. Alginate dressings tend to be one of the basics when it comes to wound care.I use Santyl on the wound I'm treating and am unable to use a silver dressing with it as the two are not compatible. Alginate dressings are compatible with Santyl for the most part.These wound dressings apply easily and the individual dressings can be easily cut to fit the size of the wound. I typically use medical scissors, though I have used traditional scissors. These are fairly soft and absorbent and fit over my wound well. I do find them a little harder to remove than some alginate dressings, however, they don't fall apart which is nice. These are not painful to remove.These are Chinese-made dressings distributed through Winner Medical. I like that the box has clear information on product features, scope of application, and other information. These are single-use bandages.For those needing an affordable alginate wound dressing option that's still effective, these dressings are a terrific option. I wouldn't call them the best I've ever used, but they're affordable, effective, and I would easily use them again.

Healing with these pads occurs quickly

used for venous ulcer.

The Silver Calcium Alginate Dressing from Niceful is a great alternative to 3M Tegaderm & Aquacel Extra. The price of Aquacel and 3M have tripled in the last 2 years. My experience with the silver alginate from Dimora was extremely disappointing. I would highly recommend the Niceful Dressing.

Very pain free and great absorption. It was very helpful in dressing my wound. Healthier and less painful alternative to gauze packing. I recommend putting this on the wound and then placing gauze over it and then using paper tape to hold the dressing in place. Putting gauze directly on the wound ended up being painful when it came time to change the dressing and remove the gauze. Gauze sticks to wound and sometimes dries, so it is hard and painful to take off to change dressing and clean area. This calcium alginate wound dressing was pain free and absorbed fluids very well.

my husbands dr could not get these for us, so thank you Amazon! they are a life saver for home health care wound dressing and saves us lots of money too!

I used this item for a fairly large open wound on my husband's leg. Being a diabetic , he has trouble with his legs not healing well. This silver calcium alginate does really well with the healing process for him.

Easy to use. Arrived early by one day. Packaged with care.
