Description
DRESSING ALGINATE SILVER 2IN X 2IN REINFORCED GELLING FIBER is a sterile, reinforced gelling fiber dressing designed for advanced wound management. Constructed from high guluronic acid (G) calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and an ionic silver complex (silver sodium hydrogen zirconium phosphate), the dressing combines mechanical strength with functional antimicrobial properties.
Upon contact with wound exudate, the alginate component absorbs fluid and converts it into a gel. This gelling action supports the creation of a moist wound environment, which is critical for promoting optimal tissue repair and accelerating the healing process. The high absorption capacity helps to manage exudate effectively, preventing maceration of surrounding skin.
The ionic silver complex releases silver ions in response to wound fluid, providing antimicrobial protection against a broad spectrum of microorganisms for up to fourteen days, as demonstrated in in-vitro testing. The cohesive fiber construction allows for easy, atraumatic removal in a single piece, reducing pain and trauma to the healing tissue during dressing changes.
