Description
- ANTIMICROBIAL ACTION designed to be a primary dressing for difficult, infected and acute wounds with varying amounts of exudate. This dressing pairs AQUACEL's Hydrofiber technology and More Than Silver technology to maximize the effects of ionic silver
- MORE THAN SILVER TECHNOLOGY is a unique formulation containing BEC, EDTA, and Ionic Silver to help with faster reduction of germs, broad spectrum efficacy, and sustained disinfectant activity. 6" x 6" (15x15cm) Square Dressings , 5ct Box
- SUPERIOR PROTECTION & HEALING with three active components synergize to absorb wound fluid and maintain a moist healing environment. AQUACEL dressings form a soft gel when in contact with wound to withdraw exudate and germs for pain-free dressing changes
- COMPLETE COMFORT gel consistency provides flexibility as dressings micro-contour to the wound bed, eliminating dead space where germs can grow. Specifically developed to work more effectively against complex infectious communities. Part Number 422298
- VERSATILITY & EASE OF USE by applying AAA directly to wound and secure with a cover dressing per healthcare professional guidance. Dressings lasts for up to seven days and prevents infection reformation for faster healing
AQUACEL Ag Advantage Enhanced Hydrofiber Dressing with Silver 6"x6" (15x15cm), Box of 5, is designed to be a primary dressing for difficult, infected and acute wounds with varying amounts of exudate. This dressing pairs two technologies to address and eliminate biofilms: Hydrofiber and MORE THAN SILVER, which maximize the effects of ionic silver while managing exudate, infection and bioburden, all of which can stall or impede wound healing. The Hydrofiber Technology helps wound healing when an AQUACEL Ag Advantage dressing comes into contact with a wound, it absorbs wound fluid and creates a soft gel that helps maintain a moist wound environment. This also helps reduce the chances the dressing will stick to the wound, which allows for pain-free changes. When this occurs, this soft gel holds onto exudate and bacteria and removes them during dressing changes. This prevents fluid from leaking and minimizes the harmful effects of maceration and cross infection. The gel consistency further provides flexibility. In turn, AQUACEL Ag Advantage dressings micro-contour to the wound bed, eliminating dead space where bacteria can grow. The MORE THAN SILVER technology reduces inflammation and microbes working in conjunction with Hydrofiber technology, MORE THAN SILVER combines EDTA and BEC with ionic silver, improving its antimicrobial efficacy. This combination provides for broad-spectrum control of bacteria and microorganisms, prolonged antimicrobial activity, rapid targeting and killing of bacteria present in the wound and faster wound healing. Ionic silver has been clinically proven to kill a broad spectrum of bacteria within the dressing, including antibiotic-resistant microorganisms like MRSA. Antimicrobial activity in AQUACEL Ag Advantage dressings lasts for up to seven days and prevents microbial reformation for faster healing. This dressing is available in six different sizes and bulk quantities.
