SILVERCEL® ANTIMICROBIAL HYDRO-ALGINATE SILVER WOUND DRESSING

SILVERCEL® Hydro-Alginate is a sterile, non-woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and silver coated nylon fibres.

Due to the excellent fluid handling capacity and the prolonged antimicrobial activity SILVERCEL® is an ideal dressing for the management of chronic wounds. 


How does it work?

Antimicrobial action
SILVERCEL® provides a sustained release of silver ions for up to 7 days, allowing for an effective antimicrobial protection for the entire wear time, depending on the level of exudate.
SILVERCEL® is effective against more than 150 wound pathogens, including MRSA, MRSE, VRE, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia Coli, Streptococcus pyogenes, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Candida albicans.

Absorbency
The unique composition of the dressing manages exudates in moderate to heavily exuding wounds, promoting a favourable environment for effective wound management.

SILVERCEL®:

  • Increases its tensile strength when in contact with wound exudate, allowing for intact removal
  • Minimises the risk of maceration and leakage
  • Has been proven to absorb and retain fluid even under compression


Indications

SILVERCEL® is intended for use in the management of all moderate to heavily exuding partial and full-thickness chronic wounds, including:

  • Pressure ulcers
  • Venous leg ulcers
  • Diabetic foot ulcers
  • Donor sites, traumatic and surgical wounds

As the product contains alginate it may assist in the control of minor bleeding in superficial wounds.
