Description
Features of the Coloplast Seasorb Ag Alginate Dressing:
- A unique mix of high G (guluronic acid) and highly carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) with the addition of an ionic silver complex, which releases silver ions in the presence of wound exudate.
- As exudate is absorbed, the dressing forms a soft, cohesive gel that intimately conforms to the wound surface.
- Silver ions protect the dressing from a broad spectrum of microorganisms over a period of up to 4 days.
Superior Absorption & Exudate Management:
- Absorbency of SeaSorb®-Ag is 33% higher than the leading silver dressing.
- Fast vertical absorption minimizes maceration to the periwound area.
- High retention locks exudate away, minimizing maceration.
- Maintains an optimal moist wound healing environment.
Antimicrobial Properties:
- SeaSorb-Ag provides an effective, sustained release of silver for up to four days.
- An independent Zone of Inhibition (ZOI) laboratory test confirms SeaSorb-Ag exerts antimicrobial effect over common bacteria for a specified period of time.
Allows Intact Removal:
- SeaSorb-Ag maintains its structural integrity when wet and can be removed in one piece.
- Intact removal is preceived as a benefit to clinicians - due to the fact that no fibers are left behind.
Reduces Odor:
- Odor in wounds is primarily caused by bacteria.
- SeaSorb-Ag provides an antibacterial barrier to combat bacteria absorbed in the wound exudate, therefore reducing odor.
