Melgisorb Ag is a highly absorbent, antimicrobial alginate dressing with silver, used for moderately to heavily exuding wounds, including infected wounds, to manage exudate, reduce bioburden, and promote a moist healing environment.
It forms a soft gel, supports autolytic debridement, provides sustained antimicrobial action, and allows for easy, one-piece removal. Key components include calcium alginate and CMC, with ionic silver for infection control.
Key Features & Benefits
- High absorbency: Manages high volumes of exudate, ideal for deep or heavily exuding wounds.
- Moist healing: Forms a soft gel, creating an optimal moist environment for healing and supporting natural debridement.
- Antimicrobial action: Silver ions provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, reducing bacteria, fungi, and odor in infected wounds.
- Strong and easy removal: High fibre strength allows removal in one piece, minimizing trauma to healing tissue.
- Versatile: Suitable for post-operative wounds, ulcers, pressure injuries, burns, and can be used under compression bandages.
