Medline Industries MSC7048EP Maxorb Extra calcium alginate dressing, a highly absorbent and latex-free wound care solution designed to provide optimal moisture management and healing for a wide range of wounds.

This 4" x 8" rectangle-shaped dressing is made with a unique blend of calcium alginate fibers that allow for superior absorption of wound exudate while maintaining a moist wound environment to promote healing. The extra thickness of the dressing provides added cushioning and protection for the wound site, making it ideal for moderate to heavily exuding wounds.

Key Features:
- Highly absorbent: The Maxorb Extra dressing is designed to rapidly absorb and lock away wound exudate, reducing the risk of maceration and promoting a healthy wound healing environment.
- Calcium alginate fibers: These natural fibers are derived from seaweed and have been shown to effectively promote hemostasis and aid in the formation of granulation tissue.
- Rectangle shape: The 4" x 8" size is perfect for covering larger wounds or for creating a customized dressing shape to fit the wound site.
- Latex-free: This dressing is safe for use on patients with latex allergies or sensitivities.

Use Case:
For optimal results, gently cleanse the wound area with a mild saline solution and allow the skin to dry before applying the Maxorb Extra dressing. Cover the entire wound surface with the dressing, ensuring to overlap the edges onto the surrounding skin to provide a secure seal. Secure the dressing in place with a secondary cover dressing or medical tape. Change the dressing as needed based on the level of wound exudate, following healthcare provider recommendations for wound care. The Maxorb Extra calcium alginate dressing is suitable for use on chronic and acute wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, pressure injuries, and surgical wounds. Always consult with a healthcare professional for specific wound care recommendations.
