Advanced Wound Dressings with Hydrofiber® Technology from ConvaTecConvaTec dressings with Hydrofiber® Technology gel on contact with fluid, providing clinicians and patients with substantial wound care benefits. This unique gelling action enables the dressings to lock in exudate and its harmful components(6-8a) and contour closely to the wound bed,(9a) in response to changing wound conditions. With the addition of ionic silver, AQUACEL® Ag Dressing also provides "on demand" broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, responding to increased bacterial load with increased silver ion availability.(1,10a,b)  

AQUACEL® and AQUACEL® Ag Dressings are soft, absorbent non-woven wound dressings based on Hydrofiber® Technology. Used for a wide range of moderate to highly exuding chronic and acute wounds, including surgical wounds (such as donor sites, drainage sites, excised abscesses, sinus tracts, and open surgical incisions),  AQUACEL® and AQUACEL® Ag Dressings are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and formats, including pad or ribbon dressings. AQUACEL® Ag also is indicated for the management of infected wounds and wounds at risk of infection.
