Tegaderm Silver Alginate Mesh Dressing by 3M
3M Tegaderm Ag Mesh Dressing with Silver provides a versatile, easy to use, antimicrobial barrier in an affordable silver dressing. Available in 5 sizes the Tegaderm Silver Dressing is a soft, absorbent, sterile dressing that may be cut to fit a custom size. The porous, non-occlusive dressing conforms to the wound base and effectively wicks drainage into the dressing where the silver ions are available to reduce the number of bacteria and yeast. The silver sulfate, released as silver ions in the dressing, creates an effective antimicrobial barrier for up to 7 days. It is ideal for use in wound clinics, hospitals, home care and long term care.
