Arglaes, a high MVTR transparent film dressing with controlled-release antimicrobial silver, blocks bacteria and fungi, while fostering the proper environment for wound healing. The sustained-release silver maintains full efficacy for up to seven days.Because its non-cytotoxic, it will not harm healthy tissue. Up to seven days weartime. Arglaes film is perfect for managing bioburden on line sites, post-operative incisions and donor sites.

In addition to antimicrobial, controlled-release silver ions, Arglaes Island Dressing offers a super-absorbent calcium alginate pad for fluid management centered on a high-MVTR transparent film. Ideal for shallow wounds or post-op incisions that need the added benefit of fluid management. Up to five day wear time.
Arglaes Powder can offer bioburden reduction and fluid management in an easy-to-apply powder format, making it ideal for deep, tunneling and highly exudating wounds. It is easily combined with other dressings to create a system for bioburden control and optimal moist healing environment. The powder sends antimicrobial silver ions into the wound regularly over a period of five days, while the alginate base mixes with wound exudate to form a soft, conforming gel. Bottle has resealable screw cap.
SilvaSorb harnesses the power of ionic silver, releasing silver at a controlled level for broad spectrum antimicrobial action, without harming tissue cells. The ionic silver is suspended in the SilvaSorb dressing to control its release over a period of up to seven days. It offers antimicrobial protection over a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi, including MRSA and VRE. SilvaSorb kills microbes, but is completely biocompatible with the tissue cells of healing.In addition to controlling bioburden, another key factor in wound healing is managing moisture level. SilvaSorb dressings are made of special polymer that absorbs more than five times its weight in fluid. Thats not only more that all other silver dressings, its several times more than calcium alginates or similar absorptive products. This allows SilvaSorb to be left in place for longer periods of time compared to other wound dressings, even on heavily draining wounds. If the wound is dry, SilvaSorb can help. The dressings are 20% water, giving then the unique ability to donate moisture when needed. Advanced fluid management helps provide a moist wound healing environment for the full spectrum of wounds. SilvaSorb will not dry out a wound and it will not macerate the surrounding skin.SilvaSorb is available in four formats: sheets for flat wounds with no to moderate exudate; perforated sheets for flat wounds with moderate exudate; cavity strands for deeper wounds of all exudate levels; and gel for dry wounds.
