Product Features:

UrgoClean Ag is a non-woven dressing made from antimicrobial and hydro-cleaning polyacrylate fibers with a micro-adhesive TLC-Ag wound healing matrix (Ag = silver salt).

• Strong and sustained antimicrobial efficacy against a broad spectrum of germs (both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria), including Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

• Absorption and encapsulation of fibrinous exudates.

• Reduction of the bacterial population in a biofilm within 24 hours (tested in vitro with S. aureus and P. aeruginosa).

• Atraumatic and painless dressing changes.

Indications:
Exuding chronic wounds (leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers) and acute wounds (burns, traumatic wounds, postoperative wounds) with the risk or signs of local infection.

Application:

• UrgoClean Ag can be cut with sterile scissors to adjust the size of the dressing to the wound.

• Cover UrgoClean Ag with a secondary dressing tailored to the location and level of exudation of the wound, if necessary (e.g., with UrgoSuperabsorber or UrgoSuperSuperabsorber).

• Secure UrgoClean Ag with a fixation bandage (e.g., Urgomull haft latex-free or Urgoderm Stretch).

• UrgoClean Ag can also be used in combination with compression therapy (e.g., UrgoK2).

• Wear time is 1 to 2 days.

• The maximum treatment duration with UrgoClean Ag is one month.

Contraindications:
Known hypersensitivity to silver. Do not use UrgoClean Ag as a surgical dressing for heavily bleeding wounds. Do not use UrgoClean Ag in combination with hydrogen peroxide, mercury-based antiseptics, or hexamidine. Remove the dressing from the patient during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations.
