AQUACEL^® Ag Foam

Everything you love about foam — and more.

The only silver foam dressing that offers the healing benefits of a Hydrofiber™ contact layer, the comfort of foam and the bacteria-killing power of ionic silver.*¹

AQUACEL^® Ag Foam dressings give you:

1. A waterproof top layer that permits evaporation of excess moisture while protecting against viral/bacterial penetration,*² allowing the patient to shower and bathe
2. A soft, absorbent foam pad to enhance patient comfort and absorb excess fluid
3. A Hydrofiber™ layer with ionic silver that gels on contact with wound fluid and helps provide an optimal environment for wound healing
4. A gentle silicone adhesive that provides secure, skin-friendly adhesion, easy removal and demonstrated low potential for dermal irritation or allergic contact sensitization³

The addition of ionic silver provides the ability to kill a broad spectrum of wound-related microbes in the dressing through:

• Rapid and effective antimicrobial action*^{1, 4-5}
• Controlled release of ionic silver as wound exudate is absorbed into the dressing*^{1, 4-5}
• Sustained antimicrobial activity for up to 14 days*^{1, 4-5}

ConvaTec Hydrofiber™ Technology gives AQUACEL^® dressings powerful capabilities.
