Key Features of Acticoat 7 Dressings
ACTICOAT 7 with SILCRYSTTM is an effective antimicrobial
barrier dressing.
The Nanocrystalline coating of silver rapidly kills
a broad spectrum of bacteria in as little as 30 mins
and is effective for up to 7 days.
ACTICOAT 7 consists of five layers:
two layers of an absorbent inner core sandwiched between
three layers of silver coated, low adherent polyethylene
net.
Nanocrystalline silver protects the wound site from
bacterial contamination while the inner core helps maintain
the moist environment optimal for wound healing.
Features
* Effective barrier to bacterial penetration
* Helps maintain a moist wound enbironment
* Easy to use
* Low adherent Benefits
* Nanocrystalline Silver Antimicrobial barrier – Acticoat 7
dressing provides unique protection for the wound site.
* Fast acting – Acticoat 7 is fast acting
Laboratory testing show that Acticoat 7 rapidly kills
bacteria in as little as 30 minutes – faster than other
forms of silver long lasting antimicrobial barrier.
Acticoat 7 is a long lasting anti-microbial barrier,
which remains effective for up to 7 days.
Broad spectrum - (In-Vitro data shows) Acticoat 7 is
an effective barrier to over 150 pathogens which includes
a broad spectrum of gram positive and gram negative
bacteria and fungal wound pathogens.
Acticoat 7 is an effective barrier to antibiotic-resistant
bacteria such as Antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas, Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus MRSA and Vancomycin-resistant
Enterococcus (VRE). Helps prevent infection
Acticoat 7 helps prevent infection of wounds that are
susceptible to infection in turn facilitating wound
healing
