ConvaTec AQUACEL Ag+ Extra Hydrofiber Dressing

AQUACEL® Ag+ Extra is an antimicrobial primary dressing designed for wounds at risk of infection, showing signs of infection, or where biofilm is suspected. It incorporates Hydrofiber™ Technology combined with Ag+ Technology to help manage exudate, infection, and biofilm—three key local barriers to healing. This dressing is intended for use under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
