UrgoClean Ag

UrgoClean Ag is a sterile nonwoven highly absorbent pad coated with a silver containing soft-adherent lipido-colloid layer on the dressing/wound interface. In contact with body fluids (exudates, slough) it forms a gel creating a moist environment, which allows for an easy removal of the dressing with little or no damage to healing tissues, leading to no or minor pain or trauma to the wound.

Benefits

• Charged fibers support the continuous debridement of slough by attaching to the fibrin, microorganisms, and wound residue to continuously clean the wound bed
• Fibers form a gel to promote moist wound healing
• TLC-Ag matrix provides a fast, broad-spectrum, antimicrobial-barrier that promotes healing and atraumatic, pain-free removal

Indications

UrgoClean Ag is indicated to manage exuding wounds, especially during the debridement of slough. This includes chronic exuding wounds such as venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, pressure ulcers (stage 2-4), diabetic ulcers; surgical wounds (post-operative, dermatological); partial-thickness burns; traumatic wounds; local management of wounds that are prone to bleeding, such as wounds that have been mechanically or surgically debrided. The dressing also provides an antibiotic barrier for bacterial penetration of the dressing, which may help reduce infection.

Contraindications

Should not be used if patient has sensitivity to silver.

Warnings and Precautions

Treatment with UrgoClean Ag should be carried out under medical supervision. The soft-adherent side can adhere to latex surgical gloves. Avoid contact with electrodes or conductive gels during electronic measurements such as EEG and ECG. No not use on patients undergoing MRI examination.
