Product Overview
The M lnlycke Health Care Exufiber Ag+ Silver Gelling Fiber Dressing (603423) is a sterile, 6 x 6-inch square wound dressing designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Infused with silver ions (Ag+), it provides antimicrobial protection while managing exudate effectively. The gelling fiber technology absorbs and retains wound fluid, forming a soft gel to maintain a moist wound environment and minimize trauma during dressing changes.
Features:
- Antimicrobial Action: Silver ions help reduce bacterial load in the wound.
- High Absorbency: Manages moderate to heavy exudate, locking it away to prevent maceration.
- Moisture Retention: Forms a gel to support autolytic debridement and promote healing.
- Non-Adherent: Minimizes pain and tissue damage during removal.
- Breathable: Allows vapor transmission for optimal wound conditions.
Specifications:
- Size: 6 x 6 inches (15 x 15 cm)
- Sterility: Sterile, single-use
- Material: Hydroactive gelling fibers with silver
- Indications: Partial- and full-thickness wounds, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and surgical/traumatic wounds with exudate.
Use Suggestion:
Apply directly to the wound bed, ensuring full contact. Cover with a secondary dressing suitable for the wound's exudate level. Change when the dressing is saturated or as per clinical assessment, typically every 1 3 days. Not recommended for dry wounds or third-degree burns.
