Main Specifications

• For atraumatic wound care.
• Hydrophobic polyester fibres with 1mm pore size.
• Prevents granulation tissue from penetrating the dressing, minimising pain and trauma on removal.
• Allows the flow of exudate and air.
• Provides high conformability.
• Neutral triglyceride impregnation.
• Does not contain Vaseline or Paraffin, leaving the wound residue free.
• Keeps wound margin soft and supple, avoiding scar tissue contraction.
• Enhances non-adherent properties, minimising pain and trauma on removal.
• “Touch & Kill” active antibacterial effect.
• When in contact with wound exudate, Atrauman Ag forms silver ions on its surface, killing bacteria on contact.
• Wound exudate, dead bacteria and endotoxins are absorbed by the secondary dressing.
• Silver ions are kept within the dressing where they bind to and destroy bacteria. Due to this local restriction of silver ion release, cytotoxicity of Atrauman Ag is very low.
