AQUACEL Ag Foam Non-Adhesive Dressing 10cm x 10cm is an advanced multi-layer antimicrobial wound dressing designed for management of moderate to highly exuding wounds requiring both absorption and antimicrobial protection. The dressing combines Hydrofiber technology with ionic silver and a foam layer to create a wound environment that supports fluid management, bacterial control, and patient comfort.
Unlike conventional foam dressings that primarily absorb fluid, AQUACEL Ag Foam incorporates a gel-forming wound contact layer that adapts closely to the wound surface, helping manage exudate while supporting moisture balance. The non-adhesive design provides flexibility in securing the dressing using secondary fixation methods depending on wound location and clinical requirements.
The dressing is intended for wounds requiring enhanced absorbency, conformability, and antimicrobial support while minimizing disruption during dressing changes.

How AQUACEL Ag Foam Works
The dressing uses multiple wound management mechanisms simultaneously:
The Hydrofiber® layer absorbs wound fluid and transforms into a soft gel. The gel maintains close contact with the wound surface. Ionic silver provides antimicrobial activity within the dressing environment. The foam layer absorbs excess exudate and provides cushioning. The outer layer helps control moisture evaporation while maintaining dressing integrity.
This combination supports moisture balance while managing fluid and microbial burden.
Product Usage
First clean wound according to wound care protocol and then select appropriate dressing size allowing wound coverage. Place dressing directly over wound bed and secure using suitable secondary fixation. Replace according to exudate level and clinical assessment.
