Customer Concerns
- Some users are concerned about the dressing sticking to the wound. Resolution: While Maxorb II Silver Alginate is designed for easy, one-piece removal, users with heavily exudating wounds should ensure the dressing is changed regularly to prevent it from adhering. In cases of significant exudate, additional moisture-retentive products can be used alongside the dressing.
- The dressing is slightly bulky for smaller wounds. Resolution: The 6" x 6" size is versatile for most wound types, but for smaller wounds, users may consider cutting the dressing to fit or selecting a smaller dressing option if available.
- Some users report difficulty with the removal process due to adhesive residue. Resolution: Ensure that the dressing is removed gently and in one piece to reduce the likelihood of residue. The dressing' wet-strength integrity allows for easy removal when applied correctly.
