Aquacel Ag+ Extra Dressing 15 x 14.5 cm 3 pcs for infected wounds or those at risk of infection is a high-tech Hydrofiber sterile dressing with ionic silver. It is indicated for:
- Pressure ulcers
- Exudative surgical wounds
- Burns
- Vascular ulcers
It absorbs abundant exudates and helps control bacterial load and biofilm.
Its reinforced structure forms a cohesive gel that adapts to the wound. It retains excess fluid even under pressure, which helps to:
- Avoid perilesional maceration
- Reduce dead spaces where bacteria can proliferate
It offers an enhanced antimicrobial action against pathogens in planktonic form and in biofilms. It also maintains a moist environment that promotes autolytic debridement and may require fewer dressing changes.
