Molnlycke 603422 Exufiber Ag+ Gelling Fibre Dressing 4In x 4.8In - Box of 10

Measuring 4 inches by 4.8 inches, this dressing features advanced gelling fiber technology combined with antimicrobial silver (Ag+), providing a powerful solution for managing infection and maintaining a moist wound environment, crucial for optimal healing.

Key Features:

Advanced Gelling Fibre Technology: Exufiber Ag+ is made from a unique gelling fiber that absorbs wound exudate and transforms into a soft gel upon contact with fluid. This gelling action helps maintain a moist wound environment, which is critical for promoting wound healing. It also aids in creating a protective barrier that prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound bed, reducing pain during dressing changes.

Antimicrobial Silver (Ag+): The addition of silver ions (Ag+) gives Exufiber Ag+ strong antimicrobial properties. Silver is effective against a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and antibiotic-resistant pathogens such as MRSA and VRE. By continuously releasing silver ions in the presence of moisture, the dressing helps reduce the bacterial load in the wound, preventing infection and supporting a cleaner wound bed.

Effective Exudate Management: Exufiber Ag+ is designed to handle moderate to highly exuding wounds. The gelling fibers efficiently absorb and lock in exudate, preventing it from pooling in the wound bed. This helps reduce the risk of maceration of the surrounding skin, while also minimizing the need for frequent dressing changes, making it more comfortable for the patient and convenient for healthcare providers.

Promotes Faster Healing: By managing moisture and exudate effectively, and reducing the risk of infection, Exufiber Ag+ creates an optimal wound healing environment. The moist setting supports cell migration and tissue regeneration, leading to faster wound closure and improved outcomes for chronic and acute wounds alike.

Versatile Applications: Exufiber Ag+ is suitable for use in a wide variety of wound types, including:

Pressure ulcers
Venous leg ulcers
Diabetic foot ulcers
Surgical wounds
Traumatic wounds
Donor sites
Partial-thickness burns

Soft and Conformable: The dressing is designed to easily conform to irregular wound contours, ensuring close contact with the wound bed. Its soft and flexible nature makes it easy to apply and adjust, improving patient comfort, especially for wounds in challenging areas such as elbows, knees, and heels.

Reduced Pain and Trauma: Exufiber Ag+ minimizes trauma during dressing changes due to its ability to gel and maintain a moist wound surface. This feature allows for atraumatic removal, reducing patient discomfort and helping to protect newly formed tissue during healing.

Sterile and Safe: The dressing is supplied in sterile packaging, ensuring it meets the highest standards of safety and hygiene. Sterility is critical in preventing contamination and ensuring a clean environment for wound healing.

Indications for Use:

Moderate to heavily exuding wounds
Infected wounds or those at risk of infection
Wounds requiring moisture management and infection control
