AQUACEL® Ag Advantage dressings feature two powerful technologies working synergistically to manage the key local barriers to wound healing - exudate, infection and bioburden.
Hydrofiber® Technology helps wound healing:
• Absorbs wound fluid and creates a soft gel, maintaining a moist wound environment and helps reduce pain associated with dressing changes.*1-3
• Locks in exudate and bacteria to help minimize the harmful effects of maceration and cross infection.*4-9
• Micro-contours to the wound bed, eliminating dead space where bacteria can grow.*10-12
NEW ADVANTAGE TECHNOLOGY is more than just silver - a unique formulation that enhances the antimicrobial efficacy of ionic silver within the dressing:
• Faster reduction of bacteria within the dressing compared to AQUACEL® Ag Extra, and ACTICOAT.™*13-15
• Kills a broad spectrum of bacteria within the dressing including antibiotic resistant microorganisms.*13, 16-18
• Sustained antimicrobial activity in dressing up to 7 days and prevents microbial reformation.*13,16,17
