Dimora Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing 4x4, 10 Sterile Pads — Highly Absorbent, Non-Adherent

Dimora Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing 4" x 4" is a soft, highly absorbent sterile pad designed to form a gentle gel on contact with wound exudate, helping maintain a moist healing environment without sticking to the wound.

These individually wrapped 4 x 4-inch pads use calcium alginate fibers to manage moderate to heavy exudate while conforming to wound contours. Each sterile dressing is designed for easy application and removal, can be trimmed to fit irregular wounds, and is suitable for layering or packing deeper cavities. The non-adherent nature reduces disturbance to newly forming tissue and supports a balanced moisture level at the wound surface.

How does the dressing handle moderate to heavy wound drainage?

The alginate fibers rapidly interact with wound fluid to form a cohesive, moist gel that helps contain exudate. This gel formation absorbs and retains fluid while minimizing maceration of surrounding skin when changed appropriately.

• Rapid gel formation on contact with exudate
• High absorbency capacity for moderate to heavy wounds
• Helps prevent leakage and reduces dressing change frequency
• Individually sterile packages keep pads ready for use

Can I shape or layer the pad for different wound types?

Yes — the 4" x 4" pads are easily trimmed to fit irregular wound beds or layered for deeper or tunneling wounds. They maintain structural integrity when wet, allowing safe packing of cavities without leaving fibers behind.

• Can be cut to the size and shape you need
• Layerable for deeper wounds and cavities
• Enhanced wet and dry strength for reliable removal
• Non-stick surface reduces trauma during dressing changes

What wound types are these alginate dressings suitable for?

These dressings are intended for wounds producing moderate to heavy exudate, including partial- and full-thickness wounds and those that are granulating. They are commonly used for donor sites, ulcers, burns, pressure injuries, and diabetic foot lesions when a moist environment and effective fluid control are needed.

• Partial and full thickness burns and donor sites
• Diabetic foot ulcers, leg and pressure ulcers
• Cavity wounds and granulating surfaces
• Appropriate where absorption and gentle removal are priorities

How do I apply and remove the dressing safely?

Apply the sterile pad directly to the cleaned wound bed, trim if required, and secure with secondary dressing or tape. When removal is needed, the dressing usually lifts away gently due to its non-adherent gel; if it adheres lightly, moisten the surface to ease removal and reduce disturbance to new tissue.

• Use with a compatible secondary dressing for secure fixation
• Trim to fit contours or layer for depth before packing
• Moisten if necessary to facilitate gentle removal
• Follow provider guidance for change frequency and wound monitoring

Who is this for: Dimora Calcium Alginate 4" x 4" dressings are suited for caregivers, clinics, and home users managing wounds with moderate to heavy exudate who need a sterile, conformable, non-adherent option. They are appropriate when you want a dressing that can be shaped or layered, offers strong absorbency, and helps maintain a moist wound environment while minimizing trauma at dressing changes. Always follow clinical guidance for wound assessment and dressing selection.
