AQUACEL Ag+ Extra Ribbon dressing 2 x 45cm comprise two powerful technologies working in synergistically to manage the key local barriers to wound healing – exudate, infection and biofilm.
Ag+ Technology is a unique ionic silver-containing, antibiofilm formulation that:
- Disrupts and breaks down biofilm slime ro expose bacteria.
- Kills a broad spectrum of bacteria, including antibiotic resistant superbugs with its reservoir of silver.
- Prevents biofilm formation.
Hydrofiber Technology helps create an ideal environment for healing – and for Ag+ Technology to work.
- Locks in excess exudate, bacteria and biofilm to help minimize cross infection and prevent maceration.
- Micro contours to the wound bed, maintaining optimal moisture balance and eliminating dead spaces where bacteria and biofilm can grow.
- Responds to wound conditions by forming a cohesive gel, while helping to minimize pain associated with dressing changes.
