Product Description
Exudate Management – For moderately to heavily exuding wounds
KALTOSTAT® dressing is an absorbent, calcium sodium alginate (80% Ca and 20% Na) with a high Guluronic acid content. When in contact with wound exudate, calcium ions in the dressing exchange with sodium ions in the exudate causing the dressing to transform from a dry, fibrous
state to a firm, moist gel. The dressing provides a moist environment helping to create optimal wound healing conditions and maintains its integrity allowing for easy, atraumatic removal
KALTOSTAT® dressing is also designed to promote haemostasis, providing a matrix to support blood clot formation.
