Silverlon Wound Contact Dressings

The Silverlon Contact Wound Dressings are designed for placement directly on the wound surface in direct contact with the injured tissues. The Silverlon Contact Wound Dressing provides a topical antimicrobial surface that reduces the bacteria and fungi counts on the wound surface and within 2 to 4 millimeters of the wound surface. The dressing can be left in place for several days depending on the amount of wound drainage and necrotic (dead) tissue present. The dressing also provides a highly conductive surface that reestablishes the normal skin electrical potentials.

The Silverlon Contact Wound Dressing provides an antimicrobial barrier to the entry of bacteria and fungi, thereby protecting the wound from outside bacteria and fungi contamination. A special modification of a Silverlon Wound Contact Dressing, called the Silverlon peripad, will be applied to an external feminine napkin (peripad) for lesions of the perineal region and for application after childbirth.

Approved FDA & Canadian Ministry of Health Indications Silverlon Contact Wound Dressing are indicated for local management of first and second degree burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, lacerations, abrasions, pressure sores, dermal ulcers, vascular ulcers, and diabetic ulcers.
