Description

Telfa Antimicrobial Non-Adherent Dressing, Sterile, 3" x 8" is designed for advanced wound care with integrated antimicrobial protection. The dressing incorporates polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent known for its effectiveness against a wide range of pathogens. This component helps inhibit the growth of bacteria, including gram-positive, gram-negative, and fungal organisms, directly within the dressing environment.

Its non-adherent surface ensures minimal disruption to healing tissues during dressing changes. The design helps reduce trauma and pain by preventing the dressing from sticking to the wound bed. This characteristic also supports optimal wound healing by preserving newly formed epithelial layers.

Telfa's antimicrobial properties are proven to reduce bacterial penetration and colonization within the dressing material. This is especially beneficial for use in wounds at risk of infection or in settings where bacterial resistance is a concern. Despite its antimicrobial activity, the dressing maintains low cytotoxicity levels, ensuring it does not negatively affect surrounding healthy tissue.
