MedvanceTM MedHeal Silver Calcium Alginate Ag Sterile Highly absorbent Antibacterial Dressing, 2"x2", 5 Dressings/Box. MedHeal Silver Alginate Dressing is a pliable and absorbent fiber dressing made of calcium alginate high in Mannuronic acid. MedHeal Silver Alginate turns into gel when in contact with wound exudate and delivers cool and comfort sensation. The dressing maintains a moist environment to facilitate the wound healing. The in-vitro results demonstrate the impregnated silver delivers a broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against Gram-Negative and Gram-Positive bacteria, commonly associated with wound infections: Staphylococcus aurous, Streptococcus pyogenes, Enterococcus facials, Escherichia coli, Klesiella pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. MedHeal Silver Alginate Dressing can be cut and trimmed to fit the wound bed and can be removed intact without causing trauma or a secondary damage to the wound bed and surrounding area.
WHY SILVER CALCIUM ALGINATE? Silver Calcium is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that helps prevent infection of wounds while providing optimum environment to facilitate healing. The alginate produces a hydrophilic gel when it comes into contact with wound exudate which provides a moist healing environment.
COMFORTABLE USE: Conforms to body contours and provides maximum patient comfort. Does not stick to the wound to prevent secondary damage and can be cut to size for those difficult areas.
SEMI-PERMEABLE: Semi–permeable PU film acts a liquid barrier while allows the passage of oxygen and water vapor. The multilayer structure works together to create a high absorbent yet breathable surface keeping the wound moist and sterile.
STERILE AND INDIVIDUALLY WRAPPED: Each dressing is manufactured in a sterile facility and are individually wrapped to prevent contamination of wounds. Can be used in hospitals, senior care homes, hospice, and other medical facilities.
MULTI-USE: Effective for applications such as post-operative wounds, bed sores, cysts, pressure ulcers, burns, and other minor traumas. Approved for Level II of the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS). Use code A6196 for billing/claims
