Representing the latest advances in chronic wound care, Opticell Ag+ fiber dressings are formulated with Chytoform technology. This gelling fiber utilizes chitosan, a biological material created from crustacean shells, to assist with treating surgical and traumatic wounds.
How do Opticell Ag+ Fiber Dressings Work?
Known for its unique absorption properties and positive pH, Chytoform takes on a conformable gel consistency once exposed to moisture without losing its strength or absorbency. For a gelling fiber wound dressing, this method assists with addressing minor bleeding following recent debridement.
For patients recovering from an injury, Opticell Ag+ fiber dressings:
• Help create an ideal healing environment, one encouraging autolytic debridement while controlling moisture.
• Conform to the wound bed with a low-profile design.
• Utilize Surface Area Memory to provide a consistent level of coverage.
• Provide a strategy against periwound maceration by absorbing fluid vertically, so that it doesn’t spread across healthy skin.
• Absorb a high amount of exudate, lessening the number of dressing changes and helping remove wound fluid, as well as damaged, dead or infected tissue.
• Offer gentle, one-piece absorbency.
• Are formulated with 0.75% ionic silver for broad-spectrum antibacterial protection, controlling the growth of bacteria and fungi to manage the wound’s bioburden.
• Can be worn for up to seven days at a time.
Uses for Opticell Ag+ Fiber Dressings
These conformable, gelling fiber dressings accommodate full- and partial-thickness wounds with moderate to high levels of exudate.
The dressings can also be used with dry to light-exudate wounds once pre-moistened for optimal application.
