- Silverlon Island Wound Dressings and Silverlon Wound Pad Dressings are indicated for the management of infected wounds, as the silver in the dressing provides an antimicrobial barrier that may be helpful in managing these wounds.

Instructions for Use
- Cleanse wound with sterile water, distilled water, or normal saline removing necrotic debris or eschar as needed per local protocol.
- Select the dressing size that overlaps the wound margins by 1-2 cm.
- Activate Silverlon Wound Contact Dressing and Burn Contact Dressing by thoroughly moistening with sterile water, distilled water or normal saline.
- Position the Silverlon dressing directly over wound, with either silver side in contact with the skin; secure the dressing in place using a secondary dressing per local protocol. 1) For exudating wounds, use an absorbent secondary dressing of choice. 2) For dry wounds, use a moisture-donating secondary dressing such as hydrocolloid or premoistened foam or gauze.
- Periodically check the edges of the Silverlon dressing to ensure that it is maintained in a moist condition.
- Silverlon Wound Contact Dressing and Burn Contact Dressing may be used for 7 days, but may require more frequent changing depending on wound condition and exudate build-up.
- To remove Silverlon Wound Contact Dressing and Burn Contact Dressing, first remove the outer secondary dressing per local protocol, and then gently depress surrounding skin while lifting the dressing edges.
If sticking of the dressing to the wound occurs, moisten the dressing as needed with sterile water, distilled water or normal saline until it can be easily removed by gently lifting the corners.
