Why choose Medline SilvaSorb Wound Gel?
MicroLattice - Controls The Release of Silver:
Controls Bioburden Without Harming Healthy Tissue:
Silver ions have long been recognized for their broad-spectrum antimicrobial action. Overwhelming evidence has shown that concentrations well below a part per million are effective against the microorganisms commonly encountered in the clinical setting. However, too much silver can be harmful to the tissue cells in an open wound bed.
SilvaSorb uses a combination of MicroLattice polymer and stabilized silver technologies to produce a controlled-release silver, antimicrobial wound dressing with moisture management. SilvaSorb maintains a level of ionic silver that is sufficient to control microorganisms without harming healthy tissue cells. This precision release mechanism is active against a broad spectrum of microbes including MRSA, VRE, E.coli and Pseudomonas, as well as fungi and yeasts.
