Lipido-colloid Contact Layer Impregnated With Silver Salts
Promoting Healing And Preventing Infection:- Broad spectrum antibacterial efficacy, including MRSA, when in contact with the wound bed
- 99.9% removal of biofilm after 1 day (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus)
- Pain-free dressing change
Composition:
UrgoTul Ag/Silver is an antibacterial, flexible contact layer with TLC-Ag, comprised of:
- A conformable polyester mesh impregnated with fatty substances, hydrocolloid and silver particles.
Mode Of Action:
When in contact with wound exudate, the TLC-Ag of UrgoTul Ag/Silver gels and creates a moist environment, promoting healing. This ensures non-adherence and pain-free dressing changes. When the silver salt is broken down in contact with the wound exudate, UrgoTul Ag/Silver acts as a reservoir capable of continuously releasing a bactericidal concentration of silver ions while in contact with the wound.
Benefits For The Wound:
- 99.9% removal of biofilms within 1 day (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus)
- Moist wound healing
- No adherence to the wound (no damage to newly formed tissue)
- Protection of surrounding skin
Benefits For Patients:
- No adherence to the wound: pain-free dressing change
- Well tolerated
- Very conformable to fit different wound shapes
Indications:
UrgoTul Ag/Silver is indicated for the treatment of wounds with signs of local infection: chronic wounds (pressure ulcers and leg ulcers) and acute wounds (partial-thickness burns, dermabrasions, traumatic wounds, surgical wounds, etc).
Contraindications:
- Do not use when there is a known sensitivity to silver.
- Do not use on patients undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examination.
