Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressings

Product Description for Consumer Care

The Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressing             

Product Description:
Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressings are designed for placement directly on the wound surface in direct contact with the injured tissues. The Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressing provides a topical antimicrobial surface that reduces the bacteria and fungi counts on the wound surface and within 2 to 4 millimeters of the wound surface. The wound dressing can be left in place for several days depending on the amount of wound drainage and necrotic (dead) tissue present. The wound dressing also provides a highly conductive surface that reestablishes the normal skin electrical potentials. The Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressing provides an antimicrobial barrier to the entry of bacteria and fungi, thereby protecting the wound from outside bacteria and fungi contamination. A special modification of a Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressing, called the Silverlon® Peripad, can be applied to an external feminine napkin (peripad) for lesions of the perineal region and for application after childbirth. The 2″ x 2″, 4″ x 4″, 4″ x 12″, and 10″ x 12″ Silverlon® Silver Wound Contact Dressings are currently available for Consumer Purchase from this website.

Approved FDA & Canadian Ministry of Health Indications:
Silverlon® Wound Contact Dressings are indicated for local management of first and second degree burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, chronic wounds, lacerations, abrasions, pressure sores, chronic ulcers, dermal ulcers, vascular ulcers, and diabetic ulcers.
