Additional Information +
- Aquacel Ag+ Enhanced Hydrofibre Dressing with Silver and Strengthening Fibre
- A soft, sterile, non-woven dressing made from a layer of sodium carboxymethylcellulose impregnated with 1.2% ionic silver (an antimicrobial agent), enhanced by ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid di-sodium salt (EDTA) and benzethonium chloride (BeCl), and strengthened by regenerated cellulose fibre
- Absorbs high amounts of wound fluid and bacteria and creates a soft, cohesive gel that intimately conforms to the wound surface, maintains a moist environment and aids in the removal of non-viable tissue from the wound (autolytic debridement)
- A moist wound environment and control of wound bacteria supports the body's healing process and helps reduce the risk of wound infection
- The ionic silver in the dressing kills pathogenic microorganisms, both planktonic and within bacterial biofilms, including wound bacteria, yeasts and moulds
- The dressing also disrupts and absorbs biofilm, prevents biofilm formation/reformation and increases the efficiency of silver transfer to microorganisms
- The dressing itself also provides an antimicrobial barrier to protect the wound bed
