ConvaTec Aquacel Ag Burn Hydrofiber Sterile Dressing

ConvaTec Aquacel Ag Burn Hydrofiber Sterile Dressing is specially designed for use on partial thickness burns. This absorbent dressing is a soft, sterile and non-woven hydroentangled comprised of Hydrofiber with nylon thread. It absorbs high amounts of wound fluid, bacteria and creates a soft, cohesive gel that intimately conforms to the wound surface. It also maintains a moist environment and aids in the removal of non-viable tissue from the wound.

Features

  • ConvaTec Aquacel Ag Burn Hydrofiber Sterile Dressing contains 1.2% w/w ionic silver
  • Silver in the dressing kills a broad spectrum of wound bacteria
  • Conforms closely to the wound bed, minimizing the spaces where bacteria can thrive
  • Creates and maintains an environment that is favorable to healing and is designed to detach during healing and re-epithelialization
  • Easy to apply and available in larger rectangular sizes appropriate for burn patients
  • Reinforced with nylon, silver-impregnated and antimicrobial dressing

Hydrofiber Technology:

Hydrofiber Technology is a patented technology in which fibers of high-quality cellulose are carboxymethylated altering its structure to allow better absorbency and retention of fluid. These fibers are then processed to mesh them together to form a stable fleece layer. When exposed to fluid, the fibers swell to form a clear, soft, cohesive gel structure that closely conforms to the wound bed. As the fibers swell, the fluid and its contents (eg bacteria and other inflammatory cells and enzymes) are trapped and held within the dressing. In addition, the gelling action prevents lateral spread of fluid through the dressing to reduce the risk of maceration and promote a moist wound healing environment.
