Maxorb Extra Ag Silver Alginate is a highly absorbent, nonwoven pad composed of a calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and ionic silver. Exposure to wound exudates dissolves the silver and stimulates the release of silver ions. As more fluid is absorbed over time, more silver ions are released, creating a controlled-release, antimicrobial effect. Plus Maxorb Extra Ag releases silver in extremely small amounts that do not damage healthy tissue. It is biocompatible, nonirritating, non-sensitizing and will not harm new granulation tissue. Each dressing contains nominally 5% by weight Silver Sodium Hydrogen Zirconium Phosphate.

Features:

• Not made with natural rubber latex.
• Made up of CMC and calcium alginate for maximum protection and absorbency.
• Ionic silver with controlled release aids in the control of bacteria.
• Reduces the chance of periwound skin maceration by maintaining the right moisture balance.
• Antimicrobial silver aids in stopping bacterial growth in the dressing.

Indication: Suitable for moderate to heavily exuding partial to full thickness wounds.

Contraindications:

• Third degree burns, dry or lightly exuding wounds
• People who are known to be sensitive to alginates or silver
• To control heavy bleeding, or for use as a surgical implantation.

Instructions for Removal: Gently remove the dressing and the secondary dressing from the wound. If needed, the dressing can be moistened to make removal easier.
