AQUACEL Ag Advantage dressings are antimicrobial primary dressings for use in acute and hard-to-heal wounds that are infected or at risk of infection with varying exudate levels. Aquacel Ag Advantage incorporates two powerful technologies – Hydrofiber and More Than Silver - that work together synergistically to effectively manage biofilm within the dressing.
Features
- Micro-contours to the wound bed, eliminating dead space where bacteria can grow.
- Sustained antimicrobial activity in dressing up to 7 days and prevents microbial reformation.
- Faster reduction of bacteria within the dressing compared to Aquacel Ag Extra, and Acticoat.
- Kills a broad spectrum of bacteria within the dressing including antibiotic resistant microorganisms.
- Locks in exudate and bacteria to help minimize the harmful effects of maceration and cross infection.
- Absorbs wound fluid and creates a soft gel, maintaining a moist wound environment and helps reduce pain associated with dressing changes.
- New Advantage Technology is more than just silver - a unique formulation that enhances the antimicrobial efficacy of ionic silver within the dressing.
