Arglaes Island Dressing is a transparent film dressing seeded with ionic silver in the film and the adhesive with the addition of a calcium alginate pad. Arlaes maintains an antimicrobial barrier for up to 7 days, continuously releasing silver ions through use of controlled release polymers.The consistent, sustained-activity of silver provides antimicrobial barrier action that is completely non-cytotoxic. The calcium alginate pad is highly absorbent and facilitates a moist healing environment at the wound surface which is also conducive to wound healing. The film also has a high moisture-vapor transmission rate to help maintain a moist healing environment.;;Properties;- Antimicrobial barrier utilizes a sustained-activity, silver-based polymer;- Provides better wound healing environment;- Versatile and easy to use;- Effective barrier against a broadspecturm of microbes;- Virtually pain free, wash away removal of alginate;- Non-cytotoxic;- Highly absorbent;- Alginate pad effective for five days (antimicrobial barier maintains full efficacy for seven days);;Indications;- Moderately to heavily exuding wounds;- Traumatic wounds;- Surgical wounds;- Dermal ulcers and any other wet wound
