Aquacel Ag+ Extra Enhanced Hydrofibre Dressing with Silver and Strengthening Fibre is a soft, sterile, non-woven dressing made from two layers of sodium carboxymethylcellulose impregnated with 1.2% ionic silver (an antimicrobial agent), enhanced by ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid di-sodium salt (EDTA) and benzethonium chloride (BeCl), and strengthened by regenerated cellulose fibre. This dressing absorbs high amounts of wound fluid and bacteria and creates a soft, cohesive gel that intimately conforms to the would surface, maintains a moist environment and aids in the removal of non-viable tissue from the wound (autolytic debridement). A moist wound environment and control of wound bacteria supports the body's healing process and helps reduce the risk of wound infection. The ionic silver in the dressing kills pathogenic microorganisms, both planktonic and within bacterial biofilms, including wound bacteria, yeasts and moulds. The dressing also disrupts and absorbs biofilm, prevents biofilm formation/reformation and increases the efficiency of silver transfer to microorganisms. The dressing itself also provides an antimicrobial barrier to protect the wound bed.
