Product Description
SilvaSorb Hydrogel harnesses the power of ionic silver, releasing silver at a controlled level for broad spectrum antimicrobial action, without harming tissue cells. The ionic silver is suspended in the SilvaSorb dressing to control its release over a period of up to seven days. It offers antimicrobial protection over a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi, including MRSA and VRE. SilvaSorb kills microbes, but is completely biocompatible with the tissue cells of healing. In addition to controlling bioburden, another key factor in wound healing is managing moisture level. SilvaSorb dressings are made of special polymer that absorbs more than five times its weight in fluid. Not only does SilvaSorb absorb more than all other silver dressings, it has several times more calcium alginate than other similar absorptive products. This allows SilvaSorb to be left in place for longer periods of time compared to other wound dressings, even on heavily draining wounds. If the wound is dry, SilvaSorb Gel can help. The dressings are 20% water, giving then the unique ability to donate moisture when needed. Advanced fluid management helps provide a moist wound healing environment for the full spectrum of wounds. SilvaSorb Hydrogel will not dry out a wound and it will not macerate the surrounding skin. SilvaSorb Gel Indications * Leg ulcers * Skin tears * Pressure ulcers * Surgical wounds * Diabetic foot ulcers * 1st & 2nd degree burns * Lacerations & abrasions * Grafted wounds & donor sites * Partial & full thickness wounds SilvaSorb Features * Easy to Use - Easy to spread and won't melt into the wound. * Donates Moisture - Hydrogel helps hydrate dry wounds and maintain an optimally moist wound healing environment. * Reduces Bioburden - Effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi.
