ALLEVYN◊ Ag Non-Adhesive Dressing, Hydrocellular - 4" x 4", 10/bx, 7 bx/cs

ALLEVYN◊ Ag Non-Adhesive (Smith & Nephew) utilizes a hydrocellular foam structure containing silver to provide effective antimicrobial action. Silver ions are released upon contact with wound exudate, creating an antimicrobial barrier that protects against a wide range of bacteria. The foam core manages exudate levels to maintain an optimal moist healing environment. ALLEVYN◊ Ag Non-Adhesive lacks an adhesive, requiring a secondary retention method, providing versatility for patients with sensitive or fragile peri-wound skin.

Please note: All prices are for cases.

Key Features

Sustained Antimicrobial Action: Provides a continuous release of silver ions for up to seven days, effectively managing the local bioburden within the wound bed.

Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Effective against a wide range of bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains, and fungi.

Hydrocellular Foam Core: Offers high-capacity absorption and fluid retention to manage moderate to heavy exudate levels.

Non-Adhesive Design: Minimizes the risk of trauma to the wound bed and surrounding skin, making it suitable for patients with high skin sensitivity.

Triple-Action Technology: Maintains an optimal moist wound environment through a combination of a breathable outer film, absorbent foam, and a wound contact layer.

Bacterial and Waterproof Barrier: The high-integrity outer film prevents external contaminants from entering the wound while allowing for gas exchange.

Ideal Clinical Applications

Infected Wounds: Indicated for the management of wounds where clinical infection is present or where the risk of infection is high.

Moderate to Heavily Exuding Wounds: Optimized for chronic and acute wounds with significant drainage requirements.

Fragile Periwound Skin: Excellent for use on patients where standard adhesives may cause skin tears or irritation.

Pressure and Leg Ulcers: Suitable for treating venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and pressure injuries that require antimicrobial intervention.

Surgical and Traumatic Wounds: Effective for donor sites, surgical incisions, and broad abrasions.
