Dimora Upgrade Silver Calcium Alginate Wound Dressing -Antibacterial Non Stick Gauze, Highly Absorbent Sterile Bandage Pads,4'' x 4'' Patches 5 Packs

I have used the Dimora branded AG+ for a few years now for reoccurring chronic venous ulcers as instructed by wound care, along with the Dimora high exudate bandage, and they are both consistently high quality products compared to hospital & other brands (telfa). Even the nurses at wound care commented on the high quality.When I ordered a new supply of the AG+, only the "upgraded version" was available. Come to find out, the only difference is that the individual packaging is now a sealed plastic type and no longer the older paper one. Which seems to be a better seal to keep moisture out. Amazon's product description does not imply as to what the upgrade pertains to.So, rest assured, the updated version is still a silver calcium alginate dressing for infection and high exudate control that actually does not stick to the wound if changed as directed.I hope this helps.

I am very pleased with this silver alginate dressing. It heals some serious cuts fairly quickly. First I clean the wound with wound cleaner which also helps to debride it a bit. then I cut a piece of the silver alginate dressing and place it over the cut or wound making sure the entire wound is covered. I do it with clean hands or gloves. I cover the entire wound with a clear dressing of which there are several types. Make sure the dressing is large enough to give space I around the dressing. I change the dressing after 2-3 days. After each change the wound is a lot smaller. For larger wounds you may want to use abdominal pads at first secured with tape.

Dr order for twice weekly post operative dressing change.seems identical to hospital product,Happy that these items can be ordered and delivered from Amazon.

I liked that it was delivered promptly the next day after requesting next day delivery.

Recommended by my veterinarian. My Shitzu had an injury and that ir would help with the healing of the cut

Cut alginate to fit on the pad of the bandage and put on wounds. Works well on pressure sores and wounds

So far so good it's really helping soaking up stuff I have had a skin issue that is open and draining alot doctor told me get this soaks it up use gauze on top of that . Haven't had any issues yet with it . Will be buying on repeat till my wound is heal .

It works good, it's well packaged but did stick to my wound just a little bit. I would recommend it.
