SeaSorb Alginate Dressing. This improved version of the SeaSorb dressing offers increased absorptive capability and improved patient comfort. SeaSorb is the only alginate created through freeze-dried technology that provides ease of clinical application and consistent wound coverage. The dressing can be cut, shaped, and fitted to the wound area and remains intact for easy removal. SeaSorb possesses vertical wicking action to pull exudate away from the wound surface, minimizing the risk of maceration. Available in 1 1/2" x 2 1/2" (4 x 6 cm) and 4" x 4" (10 x 10 cm) sizes.
