A soft, conformable, absorbent polyurethane foam pad with a vapour-permeable film backing and a gentle silicone adhesive border impregnated with silver. The dressing has 3DFit technology, which means the foam conforms to the wound bed to fill the gap and reduce pooling of exudate.
A highly absorbent, non-woven, silver gelling fibre dressing composed of a blend of cellulose-based fibres. When the dressing fibres come into contact with exudate, they swell and form a soft cohesive gel sheet. Exudate is locked in the dressing structure.
Sterile, soft, non-woven dressing made from highly absorbent and gel-forming polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibres, coated with silver sulphate on both sides, with an antimicrobial action against a broad range of wound-relevant pathogens. High absorption and retention capacity to maintain moist wound environment. The structural integrity of the dressing supports removal in one piece.
Silver sulphadiazine 1.0% w/w cream
KerraContact Ag dressing uses Ag Oxysalts Technology, which is designed with three missing-electrons (Ag3+), while silver contained in other silver dressings is missing only one electron (Ag1+). Kerracontact Ag dressing is a sterile, single use wound dressing effective against a variety of gram-negative and grampositive bacteria for up to seven days. It can be used on dry wounds (when pre-moistened) or in the presence of exudate whereby it allows for transfer of fluids into a secondary dressing.
Silver-containing alginate dressing with CMC fibres
Antimicrobial foam dressing consisting of a soft silicone wound contact layer, absorbent foam containing a silver compound and activated carbon, and a film backing.
