Aquacel® Extra™ Hydrofiber Dressing Hydrofiber (Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose)

AQUACEL® Ag EXTRA™ wound dressing is composed of two layers of Hydrofiber® Technology stitched together

It is nine times stronger and has 50% greater absorbency as compared to the original AQUACEL® Ag wound dressing

Specifically suited to help manage moderate to highly exuding wounds and is cleared for the same indications as the AQUACEL® Ag dressing

• A Hydrofiber® layer with ionic silver that gels on contact with wound fluid and helps provide an optimal environment for wound healings

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
• Controlled release of ionic silver as wound exudate is absorbed into the dressing within 30 minutes of exposure 
• Sustained antimicrobial activity for up to 14 days
