Atrauman Ag 499575 Silver Impregnated Primary Dressing 10cm x 20cm

Atrauman Ag is an oinment impregnated silver containing wound contact layer. It prevents secondary dressings from sticking to wounds, provides skin care for the wound edges and is antibacterially effectivewhen bacteria come into direct contact with the dressing.

Bacteria are destroyed when they come into direct contact with the dressing. The wound excudate together with the killed bacteria and the endotoxins formed in the process are absorbed into the secondary wound dressing.

Atrauman Ag can be combined with all kinds of absorbent wound dressings. Hyroactive or gauze dressings are such dressings that are suitable for use as a secondary dressing.

Atrauman Ag is suitable for complementary use in the treatment of infected wounds or wounds showing critical colonization as well as for infection prophylaxis.
